Hawthorne, Mayer - You've Got The Makings Of A Lover Lyrics






You’ve got the makings of a lover
you got a style
that would make a man walk a mile
just to see you
or just to hold your hand
I love you and I don’t understand

You’ve got the makings of a lover
and when you walk
all the fellows start to talk
and say you’re fine
and that you’re so sublime
I love you and I wish you were mine

You took my heart away (away)
the very first day
that I saw you
(that I saw you)
I tried to make a play (a play)
you turned and walked away
but I adore you

You’ve got the makings of a lover
and when you walk
all the fellows start to talk
and say you’re fine
and that you’re so sublime
I love you and I wish you were mine

I wish you were mine
I wish you were mine
I wish you were mine
I wish you were mine
I wish you were mine
[fade out]

    My dad hears this song for the first time and he tells me "Who sings this song? And how did I miss this jam back in the day?! This is a cruisin' jam boy!". I didn't have the heart to tell him it not from the 60's lol but I eventually told him and he was very impressed that someone is keeping the soul sound alive.

    You’ve got the makings of a lover
    You got a style

    I wish you were mine
    I wish you were mine
    I wish you were mine
    I wish you were mine
    I wish you were mine
