Perfect Lyrics

Perfect

You're perfect

At making me feel perfectly

Incomplete

Perfect

You're perfect

At making me feel perfectly

Incomplete

I used to think love was something that would make me feel whole

Feel more whole than I already felt

Somehow fill a void I thought existed within myself

Instead

When love came running to me

With arms open from east to west

It ripped out from me my own heart

And held it proudly above my head saying

Nice to meet you

But I've never been good at first impressions

I thought if I asked for it back nicely love would comply

How foolish I became

When love opened my eyes

And I saw you

In the light

Perfect

You're perfect

At making me feel perfectly

Incomplete

See

The truth is

I feel more incomplete now than the day we first spoke

I unwrapped our conversation slowly

Like the last present on Christmas morning as a child

You make me feel like a child

With all the questions in the world

And not a single answer in sight

Ah!

What pure unadulterated delight

How foolish I became

When love opened my eyes

For it is indeed easier and yet such a loss

To live blind

Blind to the light

Perfect

You're perfect

At making me feel perfectly

Incomplete

And so I'm incomplete

And it's perfect

Perfectly flawed

When I added you to my life instead of gaining anything I lost

I lost my breath

You took it away

I lost my patience

I can't go one day without enjoying your existence

And most of all?

I lost all interest in going back to feeling complete without you

And I think

This is how God felt

I think this is how God felt

This is how God felt

When He made the light
