Lyrics
PERFECT
Music and Words by Ann Hampton Callaway
I’ve seen a perfect sunrise in the morning
The birth of gold and crimson on the sea
I’ve walked a perfect night in early summer
With the warmest lilac breeze caressing me
And I recall a perfect night of music
My eyes welled up with tears when it was through
And when I turned to see you also crying
I knew I’d found my perfect love in you
And once my life was filled with someone
Who shared the beauty all around
We built our world with perfect moments
We lived for sight and taste and touch and sound
If I remember just the perfect moment
Perhaps my heart won’t feel broken in two
For perfect moments have their perfect endings
And that’s how I’ll remember you
