Lyrics:
The nights are too long
When the questions are too long
I try
But i... will never understand
What do you see in him?
What do you see in her? oh..
da da da
She's the lifeblood of me
As you walk hand in hand
And I try, and I try, and I try
But I will never understand
Oh, What Do You See In her?
I Ask Myself, What do you see in her? oh...
she will plague you
And I will be glad
she will plague you
And I will be glad
From Passions Just like Mine:
Quotes
Morrissey friend James Maker states in his "Autofellatio" book: "Initially, [Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke¸] were not particularly comfortable with the connotations of Morrissey’s prescient homoeroticism. The title of What Do You See In Her? [sic] was changed to Wonderful Woman for this very reason because of a concern that the group might be construed as gay. However, it was evident from the beginning that the songwriting, the conceptualisation of the group’s identity and the public voice of The Smiths lay exclusively in the hands of Morrissey and Marr. Consultation with Rourke and Joyce in this regard was superfluous.".
