Lyric

She ain’t shyShe’s outspoken boyShe always speaks her mindExcept those quiet little momentsWhen I am all she needsAnd I hold her tenderlyShe only gets that way with me
She don’t crySome how she seems to keep it all insideUntil those magic little momentsWhen I am all she needsAnd the love is good you seeShe only gets that way to me
And she gets sad sometimesShe’ll never show itYou might make her madBut you’ll never know itShe don’t wear her heart out on her sleeveShe only gets that way with me
And she ain’t weakMy baby’s just as strong as she can beUntil those nights she comes and tells meThat the want to in my eyesGives her butterfliesShe only gets that way with meShe only gets that way with meShe only gets that way with meThank God she only gets that way with me
