Perfect
Unveiling the Complex Dance of Love and Loss in 'Perfect'
Lyrics
I know we're just like old friends
I recognize our connection like that of old friends
We just can't pretend
We can't deny the reality that lovers sometimes reconcile
That lovers make amends
Acknowledging that relationships require resolution
We are reasons so unreal
We are the reasons for issues that seem unreal
We can't help but feel that something has been lost
We sense that something important has been lost
But please you know you're just like me
Emphasizing a shared similarity
Next time I promise we'll be
Assuring that in the future, things will improve
Perfect
Expressing a desire for perfection
Perfect
Reiterating the aspiration for perfection
Perfect strangers down the line
Describing a distant relationship with perfect strangers
Lovers out of time
Partners who have lost the right timing
Memories unwind
Recalling past experiences as memories fade away
So far I still know who you are
Expressing a sense of knowing the essence of the other person
But now I wonder who I was
Raising questions about personal identity and change
Angel, you know it's not the end
Acknowledging that a significant phase is not the end
We'll always be good friends
Committing to remaining good friends despite challenges
The letters have been sent on
Referencing the communication through letters
So please, you always were so free
Highlighting the other person's freedom
You'll see, I promise we'll be
Assuring that there will be positive changes
Perfect
Reiterating the desire for perfection
Perfect strangers when we meet
Describing a meeting with perfect strangers
Strangers on the street
Encountering unfamiliar individuals on the street
Lovers while we sleep
Being lovers during moments of vulnerability
Perfect
Reiterating the desire for perfection
You know this has to be
Acknowledging the necessity of change
We always we're so free
Reflecting on past freedom
We promised that we'd be
Committing again to the pursuit of perfection
Perfect
Reiterating the desire for perfection
