terri clark - emotional girl lyrics

i've been looking at you looking me
bet you're thinking that what you get
is what you see
but underneath this cool exterior
a raging river flows
so before you get any nearer
i better let you know

[chorus:]
i'm an emotional girl
i can't help myself
sometimes i laugh
sometimes i cry
sometimes i do both and i don't know why
i got a passionate heart
and that's just the way things are
you and me could give it a whirl
but i'm warning you, boy
i'm an emotional girl

i like music that's loud and lights down low
i like driving my car too fast
and dancing slow
some folks may say i'm too extreme
'cause i can't stop once i start
but i never could do anything
with half my heart

[repeat chorus]

[instrumental break]

[repeat chorus]

you and me could give it a whirl
but i'm warning you, boy
i'm an emotional girl
