Beautiful Thing
by: Antony CostaI had no control over these emotions
Yet the drug was to strong to fight
Like the moon against the tide
Every law of love is defined
We couldn’t be more black and wite
Our love knows no compromise
We could let fate take the blame
For giving us a beautiful thing
Chorus
We got a thing we can’t explain
From heaven to hell and back again
Like a last papers read
We got a beautiful thing
We got flashes of perfection
Shining brighter than the whole of the sun
It’s kinda insane
It’s a beautiful thing
It was just same thing that was meant to happen
When the hand of destiny decides
That these two souls collide
We could let fate take the blame
For giving us a beautiful thing
Chorus
We have been cursed by this blessing
