Verse 1

He walked in like a wildfire,

Didn’t even make a sound,

But everything I was before

Is different now.

He touched me like he knew me,

Like he’d read me all along,

Like a guitar in his hands,

I was already a song.

⸻

Verse 2

Said he’d be a gentleman,

Said he’d take it slow,

But the look in his eyes

Said he already knew.

Every kiss felt easy,

Every move felt right,

Like my body had been waiting

For him all my life.

⸻

Chorus

Wrecked me with his kisses,

Wrecked me with his games,

Wrecked me with his words

And the way he said my name.

⸻

Verse 3

He’d disappear like smoke,

Then come back like fire,

Left me guessing what was real

And what was just desire.

One day I was chosen,

Next day I was alone,

Trying to build a future

On a man who wouldn’t stay home.

⸻

Chorus

Wrecked me with his kisses,

Wrecked me with his games,

Wrecked me with his words

And the way he said my name.

⸻

Bridge

Then the road came fast,

The world went white,

And I heard myself praying

Out loud that night:

“God, please don’t let us die.”

Funny how the crash felt

Just like him —

Sudden, beautiful,

And gone again.

⸻

Final Chorus

Wrecked me with his kisses,

Wrecked me with his games,

Wrecked me with his words

And the way he said my name.

Wrecked me in my body,

Wrecked me in my mind,

But I’m still here breathing

On the other side.
