Perfect Perfect
I said
You are perfect
Well, you are to me
And I know you might ask
“Well, what is it you see?”
But that’s not the point,
The point is -
It’s you.
It’s you that composes,
a wonderful view.
For my heart to sing,
With affection
It’s true
That I’m not afraid
Of what you might say
And I have no fear
Though you might one day
Do something unkind
Unwise
Or unclean
…And now you might say
“How can you be so mean?”
Well, you are still you
No matter your view
Or what you can see
Of what you believe
Because it is not you,
Not that beautiful you
Not the one who shines brightly
And clearly in blue
The one who declares
That I cannot harm
The one who is always
The one to stay calm
And If you were to stray
And forget your way
If you were to lose complete sight
Of the day,
Lose sight of the path
That leads to the land
Where the brightest star shines
Through vast golden sands
Then for you I would wait
Until water runs clear
For you I will wait
For you I’ll not fear
You are perfect
Well, you are to me
And I know you might ask
“Well, what is it you see?”
But that’s not the point,
The point is -
It’s you.
It’s you that composes,
a wonderful view.
For my heart to sing,
With affection
It’s true
That I’m not afraid
Of what you might say
And I have no fear
Though you might one day
Do something unkind
Unwise
Or unclean
…And now you might say
“How can you be so mean?”
Well, you are still you
No matter your view
Or what you can see
Of what you believe
Because it is not you,
Not that beautiful you
Not the one who shines brightly
And clearly in blue
The one who declares
That I cannot harm
The one who is always
The one to stay calm
And If you were to stray
And forget your way
If you were to lose complete sight
Of the day,
Lose sight of the path
That leads to the land
Where the brightest star shines
Through vast golden sands
Then for you I would wait
Until water runs clear
For you I will wait
For you I’ll not fear
