Perfect

This time I think it could be perfect But you'd push it 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 glance 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'd push it away Tonight it seemed suddenly perfect Still no promises made The balance of power was shifted Were you trying to let me in Or was I trying so hard That all my confidence was lost tonight Confused and regretful, I cracked Swallowed it back And left with no spine intact Maybe we were meant to see what's right See how this ought to be Just a taste of life to see what's right You made sense out of me What a shame that we're slipping away now I'm going away now Off to see what's out there 'Cause you're all that's here for me
