Whatever It Is
Zac Brown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lips that taste like sweet red wine
And the pretty legs go to heaven every time
She got a gentle way that puts me at ease
When she walks in a room I can hardly breathe
Got a devastating smile knock a grown man to his knees
She got whatever it is
She's everything I wanna say to a woman
But I couldn't find the words to say
She got whatever it is
I don't know what to do
'Cause every time I try to tell her how I feel
It comes out "I love you"
You got whatever it is
You know I've never been the type that would ever want to stay
Bring 'em home at night and they're gone the next day
But that all changed when she walked into my life
And people askin' why it is
Tell 'em I don't know
There just somethin' 'bout the woman makes my heart go haywire
She's gonna be my wife
She got whatever it is
It blows me away
She's everything I wanna say to a woman
But I couldn't find the words to say
She got whatever it is
I don't know what to do
'Cause every time I try to tell her how I feel
It comes out "I love you"
You got whatever it is
'Cause when she loves me
Girl that's how I feel
'Cause when she loves me I'm on top of the world
'Cause when she loves me know I can live forever
When she loves me I am untouchable
She got whatever it is
It blows me away
She's everything I wanna say to a woman
But I couldn't find the words to say
She got whatever it is
I don't know what to do
'Cause every time I try to tell her how I feel
It comes out "I love you" (I do)
You got whatever it is
Oh, you got whatever it is
