Perfect

Jon McLaughlin · Indiana [2007]

I used to stare up into the sky,

and fill the space around with my why's

but now I've got it all figured out,

and I'm embarassed that it took me til now,

the simple answers in her replies,

unlock the universe with her eyes,

she rips apart my world with her moves,

oh, while stealing all the light in the room



and I found someone

to walk me through this life,

the brightened sun

has opened up my eyes,

tonight I need exactly who she is,

we're going to be perfect



She can teach a melody to the birds,

and problem solving without a word,

she can tell the richest man how to need,

oh, right after telling him about me



and I found someone

to walk me through this life,

the brightened sun

has opened up my eyes,

tonight I need exactly who she is,

we're going to be perfect



And in my life,

if I can have one thing I don't deserve

then I have never wanted

anybody else but you



She can do no wrong in my mind,

so I take a seat while she takes her time,

'cause I am here forever I say,

so lock me up and throw the keys away



'cause I found someone

to walk me through this life,

the brightened sun

has opened up my eyes,

tonight I need exactly who she is,

we're going to be perfect,

perfect
