"Perfect World" Lyrics

Now when the night falls
I won't be there
To cast a shadow on your wall
Why do we act this way
Somehow the light of day
Makes our troubles seem so small

We live and die like this
I dare you to fight for it, uh-huh

[Chorus]
In a perfect world
Wouldn't be too late to make it right
Now I know, no
In a perfect world
I'd be holding you so very tight
Uh-huh, oh, yeah
In our perfect world tonight

You can lay down your shield
I won't hurt you
Just let me show you how I feel
Down deep inside my heart
You know you left your mark
No one can say that it's not real

We live and die like this
I dare you to fight for it this time

[Chorus]
In a perfect world
Wouldn't be too late to make it right
Now I know, yeah
In a perfect world
I'd be holding you so very tight
Uh-huh, oh, yeah
In our perfect world tonight

The wheel keeps turning
And we're burning in the flames
It's not wrong to hold on to love
And let go of the pain, yeah

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
In a perfect world
I'd be holding you so very tight
Uh-huh, oh, yeah
In our perfect world tonight
Tonight, oh, yeah
