[Video] Aretha Franklin - (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman

#ArethaFranklin #QueenofSoul #RIP #Respect #RnB #Soul When my soul was in the lost and found,  You came along to claim it I didn't know just what was wrong with me,  Till your kiss helped me name it Now I'm no longer doubtful, of what I'm living for And if I make you happy I don't need to do more 'Cause you make me feel, You make me feel, You make me feel like A natural woman Oh, baby, what you've done to me You make me feel so good inside And I just want to be, close to you You make me feel so alive You make me feel, You make me feel, You make me feel like A natural woman You make me feel You make me feel You make me feel like a natural woman You make me feel You make me feel Songwriters: Gerry Goffin / Carole King / Jerry Wexler (You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
