Perfect Lyrics
I wish it could be blue again
Hazy petrol nights
Crimson sun on traffic lights
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it's light
Streets get full up every up
With people buzzing round the lights
And waving at the taxis driving by
And yesterday's todays just fade away
Rolling home, it's getting light
Feeling sleepy, full of wine
Fall in bed, just in time
That kiss you as they tell you lies
And wonder where you're going, where've you been
In towers high with time to fill
Gardens on your window sill
In between the pavement and the sky
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it's light
Perfect silence me and you
It's really me, I really do
Remember every moment magnified
this is amongst my favourite Lightning Seeds songs, makes me think about nice things and reminds me about a lot of stuff in my life too. I especially like the line "Now tomorrow's here today, and yesterday's todays just fade away" because it reminds me of how many great memories I have, and how quickly things in life can change.
Chez, you've picked out possibly the most meaningful line ever written by anyone, ever. This song is, simply, perfect. I will neva find sumthing more personally meaningful than this song. Superb.
I love this song. Can anyone analyze it further for me? I'd love to know what the 'Lightning Seeds' wanted it to mean, anyone any idea? It sounds like someones idea of a perfect world that isn't perfect. 'Tell me all those perfect lies' makes it seemt hat way. Tell me if you agree with this or let me knwo what you think. Cheers
i think they want to tell us what is perfect in this unperfect world. and i agree that those line are the most meaningful line i ever heard :D
