Perfect Lyrics

Stay forever who you are
Don’t change a thing
Because you're perfect

You sway gently in the breeze
In between my dreams
It kind of makes me nervous

You’re storm, yeah, the lightning striking down
To only strike me once, would still be worth it

In my dreams you were perfect
When I woke you were perfect

Love, as scaring as it is
Tell me is it real,
If it ain’t perfect?

I pray with the sounding of you faith
My colours bleed to one
Nothing grows when your love is gone

In my dreams you were perfect
when I woke you were perfect

Hmm, even when you run you’re still worth it
Here and now, the moments perfect
You’re perfect
So perfect
When you run
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Oh run, yeah

Even when you’re gone, even when you’re here, even when you’re not
You’re still, you’re still, you’re still
Perfect

Lyrics are a bit off... Obviously about being in love with someone, putting them on a pedestal, thinking that they're perfect, and not wanting them to change.

=| Put bluntly, I really, really do not like this song. The lyrics are screwed, and the song is annoying. Nobody is 'perfect'.

Just a speculation here... if you replace every 'perfect' in the song with the word 'perving', it suddenly takes on an entirely different meaning...

Of course nobody is perfect; she clearly means that the person is perfect for her. Beautiful song.

My beloved dog Rufi passed away in March 2013. She was 14 years old and had a neurological condition that left her paralysed but thankfully NOT in pain. I nursed and cared for her until the day we had to let her go. When I heard this song...it was as if I was singing it to my beloved Rufi...she WAS PERFECT to me, despite her little body breaking down, despite it all...despite the tears and anguish of knowing I was losing her...having been blessed by her presence and her love and her devotion...was so worth all my anguish and suffering...and now that she's gone...now that she's not here...she still is PERFECT to me.

My Rufi when I see her in my dreams she is so perfect.

RIP Darling Angel Rufi 6 Dec 1998 - 24 Mar 2013
