Perfect Songtext / Lyric

Standing, in the doorway

Is the most perfect little thing I'v ever known

But she's crying, letting it all out

So frustrated by the things she can't control



And from the moment that she wakes in the morning

Till the stars are coming out at night

So immaculately dressed, never fails to do her best

But this fire that burns is never satisfied



You can be way up high but it's not so far to fall

It's all these imperfections, kepp my coming back for more

Don't be so hard on yourself, all you can do is try

Baby wipe away the tear that's in your eye

Who needs to be perfect, who wants to be perfect



Not I (2nd chorus only)






Racing, always chasing

Just slow down and breathe it in then let it go

There's no hurry, we got all night

Cos you say it is doesn't make it so



I know that someday's they go on forever

And there's nothing you can do to make it right

But when it gets too much to bear

Just know that I'll be there

With a love that's as plain as black and white



Turn around and take a walk down

The boulevard of broken dreams

The closer we get the further away they seem

We're stranded, we're all hopeless

We're ships lost out at sea

Who needs to be perfect, who wants to be perfect

Not I, not I, not I
