The Way She Loves Me
Michael Sarver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And she held my face and she kissed my lips so hard
Call me crazy but I kinda want you to take me back
To the place where our love crashed on the California shore
So I put that t-shirt on again and she wore that same sundress
Oh, I can′t believe the way she loves me
Oh, I don't deserve the way she loves me
Sometimes I'm number one, I′m in my own world
Yeah, but not for long ′cause I got a girl
That calls me out and brings me back to earth
Yeah, she breaks me and makes me a better man
A better man
Oh, I can't believe the way she loves me
Oh, I don′t deserve the way she loves me
It's never too much, I can′t get enough of
I could never live without her now
Oh, oh, oh, the way she loves me
Oh, oh, oh, the way she loves me
Oh, I can't believe the way she loves me
Oh, I don′t deserve the way she loves me
It's never too much, I can't get enough of
Yeah, yeah
Whoa, whoa
Yeah, yeah
Whoa, whoa
