You can be perfect
In an imperfect sort of way
You will leave it all out
And then you put it all away

And you say you'll stay
But you can't stay long this time
And you say you'll stay
But you can't stay long this time

So now that you've heard this
Loud and clear ringing in your ears
Give it a purpose
Happy to dry up all those tears

And you'll stay this way
But you can't retrace those lines
And we play this way
But be careful what you find

You can be perfect, you can be way out, its in my head, its in my head
You can be perfect, you can be way out, its in my head, its in my head
And its all worth it, and there is no doubt, its in my head, its in my head
And its all worth it, and there is no doubt, its in my head, its in my head
You can be perfect, you can be perfect

Now that we're perfect
Perfect as anyone can be
You know we deserve this
Beautiful planned calamity

And you say you'll stay
But you can't stay long this time
And we play this way
So be careful what you find

And it makes me sway
To the pulse of your unwind
And you say you'll stay
Cuz we're perfectly in time this time
