  • I remember like lightning to the heart
    I saw things clearer
    The day you came inside, I felt brand new
    So what am I to do now?
    Well you don't have to say it
    Cause I can read your mind
    You do not have to stay here
    If you don't have the time
    And if you must go
    Just know I gave you my whole world
    Trusted & loved you
    Must've been cuz I'm a crazy girl
    Yeah you really took things too far
    And there are some things
    That you should know my mama was a gypsy
    My daddy was a rollin' stone
    I wonder did he miss me
    Cause he was never home
    So I thought you would
    I thought you could be the one
    I never really knew love
    So I thought you would
    I thought you could be the one
    But you already knew love
    From a beautiful woman
    Beautiful woman and your beautiful child
    Left me in beautiful ruins
    Instead of pullin' me out
    So I think I should
    I think I'll just walk away
    From the beautiful moments we made
    So I think I should
    I think I'll just walk away
    From the beautiful ruins you made here
    From the beautiful ruins you made here
    All these beautiful ruins you made
    All these beautiful ruins you've made me
    What a beautiful woman you've made of me
    What a beautiful woman you've made of me Writer/s: BENJAMIN F. SCHWIER, DION WILSON, JHENE AIKO CHILOMBO, STEVE WYREMAN
