Lyrics of Beautiful Things by Benson Boone
verse
For a while there, it was rough
But lately, I've been doin' better
Than the last four cold Decembers
I recall
verse
And I see my family every month
I found a girl my parents love
She'll come and stay the night
And I think I might have it all
verse
And I thank God every day
For the girl He sent my way
But I know the things He gives me
He can take away
verse
And I hold you every night
And that's a feeling I wanna get used to
But there's no man as terrified
As the man who stands to lose you
pre-chorus
Oh, I hope I don't lose you
Mm
chorus
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got
chorus
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got
hook
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh
Please don't take
verse
I found my mind, I'm feelin' sane
It's been a while, but I'm finding my faith
If everything's good and it's great
Why do I sit and wait 'til it's gone?
bridge
Oh, I'll tell ya, I know I've got enough
I've got peace and I've got love
But I'm up at night thinkin'
I just might lose it all
chorus
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
Don't take
These beautiful things that I've got
outro
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh
Please stay
I want you, I need you, oh God
I need
These beautiful things that I've got
Writer(s): Benson Boone, Evan Blair, Jack Lafrantz
