Black Lab Perfect Girl Lyrics

Perfect Girl Lyrics

nobody ever, ever could tell her



what it's like to fall in love



tired of searching, she wants to be perfect



nothing's ever good enough



and i watch, i wait



catch her eye and look away 



nobody ever, ever could tell her



but i tried 







now she keeps me hanging on the line



praying at the sky



every single night's the same



she's a perfect girl



hanging by phone



praying all alone



everybody knows her name



she's a perfect girl 







and she wanted to want me



wanted to need me



wanted all those distant stars



wanted a surgeon, a full operation



but she couldn't bear the scars



and she cut me well



but she wouldn't be cut herself



and nobody told me i could be lonely



when i fell 







i'm not perfect, what's a girl to do



in a perfect world i'd be perfect too



but the longer that she makes me wait



the more my heart begins to break



but it's worth it when she comes



in the morning she'll be gone



and i'll be
