Wrecking Ball

We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain

We jumped, never asking why

We kissed, I fell under your spell

A love no one could deny

Don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

And I can't live a lie, running for my life

I will always want you

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you, you wreck me

I put you high up in the sky

And now you're not coming down

And I slowly turned, you let me burn

And now we're ashes on the ground

And don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

And I can't live a lie, running for my life

Oh, no

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball

I just closed my eyes and swung

Left me crashing in a blazing fall

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you, you wreck me

I never meant to start a war

I just want to let you in

And instead of using force

I guess I should've let you win

I never meant to start a war

I guess I should have let you in

I guess I should've let you win

Don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball

I would close my eyes

I would close my eyes and swung

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was

All you ever did was

Wreck me

All you wreck me
