This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
I came here today with a purpose
|
Should I try or just let it go?
|
'cause these things I'd like to ask you
|
Are things I can't explain
|
Or should I keep your plans outside the porch last Saturday?
|
|
Should I have succumbed to your courtesy?
|
I could see you were trying to get my attention
|
But I pushed it away
|
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
|
But tonight it seemed suddenly perfect
|
Still no promises made
|
The balance of power has shifted
|
Were you trying to let me in?
|
Or was I trying so hard
|
That all of my confidence was lost tonight?
|
Confused and regretful, I cracked
|
Swallowed it back, and left with no spine intact
|
|
Should I have succumbed to your courtesy?
|
I could see you were trying to get my attention
|
But I pushed it away
|
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
This time I think it could be
|
|
Maybe we were meant
|
To see what's right
|
She held a sort of it
|
Just a taste of life
|
To see what's right
|
To make sense out of it
|
|
What a shame that we're slipping away now (away now)
|
Going away now
|
To see what's out there
|
'cause you're all that's here for me
|
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
You're all that's here for me
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
But you're pushing away
|
This time I think it could be perfect
|
You're all that's here for me
