Perfect

All that's pure all that's true,
That's what you mean to me.
A ticket to the top of the world,
That's what you mean to me.
The answer to my prayers,
Something so beautiful so rare;
A diamond in the rough,
Something more than good enough,
You fell through the clouds, imperfect to the world
And made my world perfect.
That's what you mean to me.

Stripped, bare, exposed,
I've contracted my soul
To the building of a dream,
toward the world's defeat.
No better than the rest,
just a little courage to test
A fairy tale against the odds,
Between the corners of the world,
Is there a place for love?
Is there a place for us?

All the miles we've travelled and the people we've seen,
Spreading hope in our eyes and a diamond gleamed.
The night falls our stars begin to shine
Bright as the sun for you and I.

The world defeated and freedom gained,
They look up at us, they
look up to us.
Baby close your eyes and see
We are perfect.

Oceans that joined us now streaming down my face
At the dawn of another perfect day.
You are perfect to me.
We are perfect to the world.
But I stand just a little less,
Not to the world but to the one who loved me.
I kneel before your pride
and listen to my lesson:
You cannot love an angel.
A broken one no less.

Hold me please I can't take the fall.
Just one more day will you make time stop?
Love me please for I have given you all I have.
Love me please and forgive my faults.
Please, tell me I can be perfect.
Please, love me.
