[English]

God went crazy when He painted you

Ain't seen nothing like this before

Took a little extra time on you

Before He let you walk out the door

You got that smile, babe

You got that subtle, honestly it drive me wild, babe

I'd give it all up just to keep you by my side, babe

I knew it from the jump

Fit right in my arms like you the one

Yeah, I made for you

I prayed for you

There's a light in your eyes, every color in the sky don't

Come close to you

Yeah, I made for you

I prayed for you

I swear that God went crazy when he painted you

God went crazy when He gave me you

Must've done something good in another life

Yeah

50 shades within baby blue

So immaculately designed

You got that smile, babe

You got that subtle, honestly it drive me wild, babe

I'd give it all up just to keep you by my side, babe

I knew it from the jump

Fit right in my arms like you the one

Yeah, I made for you

I prayed for you

There's a light in your eyes, all the colors in the sky

Don't come close to you

Yeah, I made for you

I prayed for you

I swear that God went crazy when he painted you

Key Grammar Structures

• God went crazy when He painted you

  ➔ Past Simple Tense (irregular verb 'go')

  ➔ This uses the Past Simple to describe a completed action in the past. The verb 'go' is irregular, with 'went' being its past simple form.

• Ain't seen nothing like this before

  ➔ Present Perfect Negative with Double Negative (informal)

  ➔ 'Ain't' is a colloquial contraction of 'have not' or 'has not'. The double negative 'ain't seen nothing' is grammatically incorrect in standard English but is common in informal speech. It implies that the speaker has never seen anything like 'this' before. Standard English would be 'I haven't seen anything like this before'.

• Took a little extra time on you

  ➔ Past Simple Tense (irregular verb 'take') with preposition 'on'

  ➔ This uses the Past Simple to describe a completed action in the past. 'Take' is irregular, with 'took' being its past simple form. The preposition 'on' indicates the target of the action (spending time 'on' someone).

• Before He let you walk out the door

  ➔ Past Simple ('let' is base form and past simple) followed by infinitive without 'to'

  ➔ The verb 'let' is unusual because its base form, past simple, and past participle are all the same: 'let'. After 'let', we use the infinitive form of the verb without 'to' (bare infinitive).

• Honestly it drive me wild, babe

  ➔ Present Simple (habitual action) with subject-verb agreement issue (informal)

  ➔ This sentence has a subject-verb agreement error. 'It' is a singular subject, so the verb should be 'drives' instead of 'drive'. This is likely a stylistic choice or a colloquialism. Standard English would be 'Honestly, it drives me wild, babe'.

• I'd give it all up just to keep you by my side, babe

  ➔ Conditional Sentence (Type 2) - Unreal Conditional

  ➔ 'I'd' is a contraction of 'I would'. This is a Type 2 conditional sentence because it discusses a hypothetical or unlikely situation in the present. 'Would give' expresses the result of the hypothetical situation ('if I could, I would...'). The phrase 'just to' indicates purpose.

• Fit right in my arms like you the one

  ➔ Past Simple (implied) with ellipsis and informal grammar

  ➔ This sentence is grammatically incorrect in formal English. The implied verb is 'fit' (in the past: 'You fit right in my arms'). The word 'are' is missing between 'you' and 'the one'. A more formal version would be 'You fit right in my arms like you are the one'. The original line uses ellipsis (omission of words) for brevity and a more conversational tone.

• Like you the one

  ➔ Ellipsis, missing verb 'are'

  ➔ This phrase omits the verb 'are'. The full phrase is 'Like you ARE the one'. This is common in informal speech.
