lyrics

perfect girl. nobody ever, ever could tell her what it’s like to fall in love tired of searching, she wants to be perfect nothing’s ever good enough and i watch, i wait catch her eye and look away nobody ever, ever could tell her but i tried now she keeps me hanging on the line praying at the sky every single night’s the same she’s a perfect girl hanging by phone praying all alone everybody knows her name she’s a perfect girl and she wanted to want me wanted to need me wanted all those distant stars wanted a surgeon, a full operation but she couldn’t bear the scars and she cut me well but she wouldn’t be cut herself and nobody told me i could be lonely when i fell i’m not perfect, what’s a girl to do in a perfect world i’d be perfect too but the longer that she makes me wait the more my heart begins to break but it’s worth it when she comes in the morning she’ll be gone
