Perfect In Your Eyes

VERSE 1
I spend all my money
I spend all my time on myself
Attempting to be your perfect one
Wanting to become perfect
To become your perfect one

BRIDGE
Do my best to make myself perfect
I look at you and you tell me your verdict
You whisper that I’m very nearly perfect
Need to tell you that’s not what I want to be

CHORUS
I don’t want to be almost perfect
Don’t want to be not quite perfect
Don’t want to be close to perfect
I want to be perfect in your eyes

VERSE 2
I take it step by step
I take it that little bit further
Expecting to be your perfect one
Waiting to become perfect
To become your perfect one

BRIDGE
Do my best to make myself perfect
I look at you and you tell me your verdict
You whisper that I’m very nearly perfect
Need to tell you that’s not what I want to be

CHORUS
I don’t want to be almost perfect
Don’t want to be not quite perfect
Don’t want to be close to perfect
I want to be perfect in your eyes

I want to be perfect
Not a little bit perfect
I want to be totally perfect
In your eyes
I want to be perfect
Not almost perfect
Not close to perfect
I want to be perfect in your eyes

Step by step
Expecting perfection at my doorstep
Spending this and that
Expecting to become all that
Step by step
Love at my doorstep
This and that
I want to become all that

I don’t want to be almost perfect
Don’t want to be not quite perfect
Don’t want to be close to perfect
I want to be perfect in your eyes

    Everyone has things in their life that isn't perfect...and that is okay. We are all different and special in all different ways...and that is what...IS OKAY!!
    All different in who we are is what sets us apart for everyone else....and to me that is a wonderful thing!

    There is never bordom...LOL!!

    "The gift of life is what is given to each soul"....those are the words I live by.

    As for your lyrics...they are wonderful and expressed very deep of what you are feeling.

    This poem is perfect. Just be who you are. If your boyfriend can't accept that, dump him and find someone who is mature enough to love you for who you are, "flaws" and all.
