[Verse 1]
Oh yeah, this isn't goodbye
Even as I watch you leave
This isn't goodbye
I swear I won't cry
Even as tears fill my eyes
I swear I won't cry
[Pre-Chorus]
Any other girl, I'll let you walk away
Any other girl, I'm sure I'll be okay
[Chorus]
Tell me what makes a man
Wanna give you all his heart?
Smile when you're around and cry when you're apart
If you know what makes a man
Wanna love you the way I do
Girl you gotta let me know so I can get over you
[Verse 2]
What makes her so right?
Is it the sound of her laugh, that look in her eyes?
When do you decide she is the dream that you seek
That force in your life?
[Pre-Chorus]
When you apologise no matter who was wrong
When you get on your knees if that will bring her home
[Chorus]
Tell me what makes a man
Wanna give you all his heart?
Smile when you're around and cry when you're apart
If you know what makes a man
Wanna love you the way I do
Girl you gotta let me know so I can get over you
[Bridge]
Oh, other girls will come along, they always do
What's the point when all I ever want is you?
Tell me
[Chorus]
Tell me what makes a man
Wanna give you all his heart
Smile when you're around
And cry when you're apart
If you know what makes a man
Wanna love you the way I do
Girl you gotta let me know..... (let me know)
Girl you gotta let me know..... (wooo)
So I can get over you
Oh yeah, this isn't goodbye
Even as I watch you leave
This isn't goodbye
I swear I won't cry
Even as tears fill my eyes
I swear I won't cry
[Pre-Chorus]
Any other girl, I'll let you walk away
Any other girl, I'm sure I'll be okay
[Chorus]
Tell me what makes a man
Wanna give you all his heart?
Smile when you're around and cry when you're apart
If you know what makes a man
Wanna love you the way I do
Girl you gotta let me know so I can get over you
[Verse 2]
What makes her so right?
Is it the sound of her laugh, that look in her eyes?
When do you decide she is the dream that you seek
That force in your life?
[Pre-Chorus]
When you apologise no matter who was wrong
When you get on your knees if that will bring her home
[Chorus]
Tell me what makes a man
Wanna give you all his heart?
Smile when you're around and cry when you're apart
If you know what makes a man
Wanna love you the way I do
Girl you gotta let me know so I can get over you
[Bridge]
Oh, other girls will come along, they always do
What's the point when all I ever want is you?
Tell me
[Chorus]
Tell me what makes a man
Wanna give you all his heart
Smile when you're around
And cry when you're apart
If you know what makes a man
Wanna love you the way I do
Girl you gotta let me know..... (let me know)
Girl you gotta let me know..... (wooo)
So I can get over you
