Never known who he was or the man he'd become There would be no blue period Let me run with the wolves, let me do what I do Let me show you how sadness can turn into happiness I can turn blue into something [Chorus] Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful like you Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful like you [Verse 2] Let's keep it simple, babe We can't afford to change it Don't turn me into something I'm not There's no way to sustain it I try not to hold back It seems, either way, it makes you mad So I'll be who I'll be, if you think that that's cool Then I'll take you back [Pre-Chorus] What if someone had asked Picasso not to be sad? Never known who he was or the man he'd become There would be no blue period Let me run with the wolves, let me do what I do Let me show you how sadness can turn into happiness I can turn blue into something [Chorus] Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful like you Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful like you [Chorus] Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful like you Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful like you Girl bye not you dropping a whole fuckin song 7 Quote "𝒹𝑜𝓃𝓉 𝒻𝑜𝓇𝑔𝑒𝓉 𝓂𝑒, 𝓁𝒾𝓀𝑒 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓉𝓊𝓃𝓃𝑒𝓁 𝓊𝓃𝒹𝑒𝓇 𝑜𝒸𝑒𝒶𝓃 𝒷𝓁𝓋𝒹" instagram Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mer 61,781 Posted May 8, 2023 Absolutely, unequivocally: “Isn’t life crazy” I said, “now that I’m singing with Sean.” Especially when the original lyrics were the poignant and beautiful: Baby you have to forget, and I have to move on. 17 Quote ⊹ (:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅[̲̅:♡:]̲̅:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅) ⊹ 𓊔 I took the miracle move on drug 𓊔 ⚕️ The effects were temporary ⚕️ ⊹ (:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅[̲̅:♡:]̲̅:̲̅:̲̅:̲̅) ⊹ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Offtotheraces01 2,774 Posted May 8, 2023 Too much beautiful, nfr, and bartender slander here for my liking…. Yall just dont get it. I also notice a lot of yall tend to not be fans of the lyrics that are too direct and maybe don't have grander metaphor. I personally love the route lanas gone song writing wise because i feel its added another more personal layer to her persona. I use persona loosely because i have always felt lanas music is true to her, but her artistic vision has so many layers that add to the music that i feel go under appreciated! Theres only one Lana Del Rey 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stoned Mary in the Garden 6,787 Posted May 8, 2023 Im starting to question myself because I genuinely love most of the lyrics here i thought of another one that I don’t like- “lifting up my little red skirt, I know you’ll leave me here in the dirt” such a goofy rhyme lmao leave me in the DIRT? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
