I want a perfect child
|
To live a perfect life in this world
|
And though my heart tells me this could never be
|
I see it all so perfectly
|
|
They say when we have children
|
It changes how we live
|
Changes our direction
|
From take to give
|
|
It changes our perspective
|
Of how the world should be
|
Our hopes and aspirations
|
Of what we want to see
|
|
I want a perfect child
|
To live a perfect life in this world
|
And though my heart tells me this could never be
|
I see it all so perfectly
|
|
See her kind and pretty
|
See her neat and smart
|
See her like her mother
|
With a golden heart
|
|
See him tall and handsome
|
See he has resolved
|
Believe he's like his father
|
But without his fathers faults
|
|
I want a perfect child
|
To live a perfect life in this world
|
And though my heart tells me this could never be
|
I see it all so perfectly
|
|
I know these dreams are fragile
|
Never work out as you planned
|
I pray that God will hold them
|
In the hollow of his hand
|
|
I want a perfect child
|
I see it all
|
I want a perfect child
|
|
I want a perfect child
|
To live a perfect life in this world
|
Though my heart tells me this could never be
|
Could never be, never be, no no no
|
I see it all so perfectly
|
|
To live a perfect life
|
Perfect life in this world
|
Though my heart tells
|
This could never be
|
