Beautiful Things

For a while there he was wrong, but lately I've been doin' better

Than the last four cold Decembers I recall

I see my family every morn, I found a boy my parents loved

He comes to stay the night and I'm thinkin' I might have it all

And I thank God every day, for that boy he set my way

But I know the things he gives me, he can't take away

And I hold you every night, and there's a feeling I won't get used to

And there's no woman as terrifying as the woman who wants to lose you

Oh, I hope that I lose you

Mmm, please stay

I want you, I need you, oh God

Don't take this beautiful thing

I love you, I need you, the beautiful things that I've got

Oh, please don't take

Out from my mind, I'm feeling sane

It's been a while, but I find my faith

If everything's good and it's great, well, I was in it, wait 'til it's gone

Oh, I tell you, I know I've got a love, I've got a face and I've got a look

But I know that now I'm thinking I just might lose it all

Please stay, I want you, I need you, oh God

I want you, I need you, oh cat, I need these beautiful feelings that I've got.
