She's the top, she's got the world on a string

She makes me boogie, makes me do anything yeah yeah
Hey now, touch the sky,
you've got a certain kind of look in your eyes

Well, she's a miracle, she's all that I need
Like the water an the air that I breathe yeah yeah
Hey now, reach the sky,
there's a certain kind of look in your smile

        D        A        E
And I know what love can do

Yes I know what hearts can do

The big love

It's kinda strange , a bit mysterious
I got to take it oh so so serious
Hey now, touch the sky
You've got a certain kind of look in your eyes

It used to be so hard, so lonely at night
Well, she's my baby and I'm feeling alright
Hey now, move the sky
There's a certain kind of look in that smile

When I'm making love with her, (I'm Making)
When I'm making lover to her yeah
