"Perfect" Lyrics

It's time that I got myself a nice suit,
so that I could look respectable for you
and it's time that I built myself a refuge
so that I could hideaway if I so choose

These days it feels that everything is changing
used to be that every stride
you were standing by my side
Oh, but now it feels I'm walking on a tight rope
as I try to balance out how to make you proud

Chorus:

One day I'll be perfect, I'll be so extraordinary
I will shine, I will radiate
One day I'll be perfect, I'll be so extraordinary
I will take your breath away

And you almost don't even recognize me
saying how did you erase
all but gorgeous from your face

Oh, but don't be scared
cause I'll live here forever
won't you take a venture out
won't you take a venture out of there

Chorus:

One day I'll be perfect, I'll be so extraordinary
I will shine, I will radiate
One day I'll be perfect, I'll be so extraordinary
I will take your breath away
Oh, I will take your breath away

And stars will fall from skies above
but I am no prophet of doom
Oh, I just thought I'd warn you
it's a service I provide for free
oh, they call it love babe

Chorus:

One day I'll be perfect, I'll be so extraordinary
I will shine, I will radiate
One day I'll be perfect, I'll be so extraordinary
I will take your breath away
Oh, I will take your breath away
Oh, I will take your breath away
Oh, I will take your breath away
