Perfect Have I Loved

Taylor Swift · Other Songs - Taylor Swift

If you love me, then I love you

Swear by the freckles on the moon

And maybe this will be enough

I'd like to keep you til I'm old

But if I can't at least you'll know

That baby, perfect have I loved



Oh, oh



Do you remember the stuppid things we used to do?

Before September stole me away from you

The time we got your truck stuck in the creek

Cause baby, roads weren't wild enough for you and me



Sayin' if you love me, then I love you

I swear by the freckles on the moon

And maybe this will be enough

I'd like to keep you til I'm old

But if I can't at least you'll know

That baby, perfect have I loved



I can still see it, that old little bridge we used to cross

I finally made it, trying to get lost

You would smile that smile and I'd try so hard to forget

Cause of all the little fires that I still haven't put out yet



And if you love me, then I love you

I swear by the freckles on the moon

And maybe this will be enough

I'd like to keep you til I'm old

But if I can't at least you'll know

That baby, perfect have I loved



Love was all we knew

And faith was growing on the vine

Words were all we knew

And for one summer you were mine



If you love me, then I love you

I swear by the freckles on the moon

And maybe this will be enough

I'd like to keep you til I'm old

But if I can't at least you'll know

That baby, perfect have I loved
