Perfect Imperfection

There's a girl standin' on a corner

Watchin' love walk right out her door

She thought that love was like a shiny diamond

Blinded by the light, she did not see the flaw

Now she's lonely, standin' there for hours

Wishin' he would change his mind

Caught in that paradox of feelings

Wonderin' why the hurt when it used to be so fine

Love is a perfect imperfection

Sometimes happy, sometimes sad

Whenever love comes your direction

Don't you hide away, don't you hide, don't you hide

You know that there's no reason for you to be alone

Just 'cause love's treason broke, it broke your happy home

How can you celebrate when all you feel is sufferin' heartache?

Goin' down to that lonely corner

Sidewalk stretchin' out beneath my feet

Wish I could walk, walk right up to her

And tell her what I know of love

What I know, it ain't always so sweet

Love is a perfect imperfection

Sometimes happy, sometimes sad

Whenever love comes your direction

Don't you hide away, don't you hide, don't you hide

Love is a perfect imperfection

Sometimes happy, sometimes sad

Whenever love comes your direction

Don't you hide away, don't you hide, don't you hide

Don't you hide
