Perfect Child

The Church · Other Songs - The Church

In a garden, in a kitchen

On an earth beyond adventure

On an island in the sea

As a message from the future



As a man who held the answers

As another man comes crashing as me



Inside your eyes I see the blackness of dead space

A man could float forever and never find this place

Lie down my perfect child

This is but a dream



From a time when sorrow was set free

From a land of doubt and misery

From a suburb listed locally

When the sun was blotted out 'the sky



When the wind will refuse to die

There was only you and I
