Perfect Song Lyrics

Perfect Song lyrics

Many years I've lived alone

A life of solitude

Since my love did leave this life

My joys have been but few

In my sleep she sang to me

Like summer's windy breath

No sooner had she warmed my heart

Than had she left my bed

Had she left my bed



CHORUS:

Won't you sing to me the perfect song

That I might smile again

Won't you sing to me the perfect song

That I might smile... smile again



The melody enchanted me

With words I can't describe

It moved around the room until

It vanished in the night

The lyrics spoke of beauty

Only gods and angels know

She touched me on the cheek

With gentle hands like flakes of snow



Some day soon we'll meet again

If it's in a dream I'll never wake

So it won't end

We'll live in my head

The echo of your song won't go

Quietly it holds me here

By my window I wait

How long will it take?
