What She Wants - Michael Martin Murphey

She hasn’t had time to learn about this world

She takes each day the way it comes

And she can get sad but she’s just a little girl

She doesn’t ask much from anyone

But what she wants is you and me

Love at home like it used to be

And what she wants is what we were

The way we loved when we had her

She’s only a child but all the tears are real

She may wish they didn’t show

She hasn’t got words to tell us how it feels

She tries so hard to let us know

That what she wants is you and me

Love at home like it used to be

And what she wants is what we were

The way we loved when we had her

You may think it’s not enough

That she wants us back in love

And I won’t beg and I won’t plead

But what she wants is what I need

What she wants is you and me

Love at home like it used to be

And what she wants is what we were

The way we loved when we had her

The way we loved when we had her
