Lyrics
She’s the Kind of Girl
(c)2026 Eric J. Dorer (BMI), All Rights Reserved
She’s the kind of girl
I think I should make an effort to meet
But I find myself watching my words
In retreat
Just one clever line might be fine
I tap my feet
No, I don’t believe in chance
I rely upon my God
And He gives me what I need
I can paint the stars in song
Match the rhythm to the rhyme
And this girl is what I see
She’s the kind of girl
Who might be worthy of strings and guitar
Subtle harmonies on the keys,
That’s what you are
Nothing simple
And yet I won’t take this too far
I’ve been all around the world
Spent the summer by the sea
Salt air, taffy,
But what I see in her eyes…
Soft, dark, bright
Chocolate couldn’t be as sweet
Still struggling to find the words
The speech that I left behind
I wonder if you would mind…
Still trying,
Wondering what to say,
Three seconds and she’ll be gone
Would you like to meet me on…
I believe in the beauty and power of love
God, I like to think she’s the kind who also does
She’s the kind of girl
I think I should make an effort to meet
But I find myself watching my words
In retreat
Just one clever line might be fine
I tap my feet
