The Past is Perfect

I could have just pretended And nothing would have changed But I wanted to imagine A future bright and strange It's really been a long time The summer's turned to fall I wish I could remember The glory of it all But I don't remember I don't recall But I don't remember Anything at all The past is perfect It was worth it I deserved it The past is perfect I can't hurt it Anymore I took it all in stride Although I never did it right The past is perfect I deserved it Don't you know The future's looking brighter But I can't hear its call I wish I could remember The storm before the calm But I don't remember But I don't remember I don't recall But I don't remember I don't remember Anything at all The past is perfect It was worth it I deserved it The past is perfect I can't hurt it Anymore I took it all in stride Although I never did it right The past is perfect I deserved it Don't you know Oh no Oh no Oh no Oh no The past is perfect I deserved it Don't you know The past is perfect It was worth it I deserved it The past is perfect I can't hurt it Anymore I took it all in stride Although I never did it right Oh no The past is perfect I deserved it Don't you know
