Cover art for If She Wants Me lyrics by Belle & Sebastian

i agree with what dreadhead says. When he sings

If I could do just one near perfect thing I’d be happy They’d write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes

.... I feel like he's just saying he wants to do SOMETHING, it doesnt have to be perfect, just something good to be remembered for. Can't we all relate to that? And then Stuart talks again about how imperfect life is when he says

I’m going deaf, you’re growing melancholy Things fall apart, I don’t know why we bother at all But life is good and “It’s always worth living at least for a while”

Life isn't perfect, but its good, and 'its worth living'. I kinda like that.
