It was that perfect daze in that perfect gaze

It was trouble from the start

It nearly broke my heart

I hadn’t spoke two words

Then we sang

We only spoke few words

The words were enough

To make my heart skip a beat as I fell apart

Then we only seemed to get out a crooked smile

It’s not good enough

It’s never good enough

Then they all said that these words should come so easy

That little number she did that trick to me

They sang words that can’t compare

To the feeling of her heartbeat and that perfect stare

I guess this is a feeling of a fall

I guess this is the feeling of it all

When we spoke the poet died but the words still showed

That we only need to get out of this town alive

It’s not good enough for the both of us

We’re cursed with a four letter word

We never seem ready

For that perfect storm

That comes without warning

Then the tides pass by with another way to try

That perfect song tonight

Then they all said that these words should come so easy

That little number she did that trick to me

They sang words that can’t compare

To the feeling of her heartbeat and that perfect stare

I guess this is a feeling of a fall

I guess this is the feeling of it all

The more and more I try to get you out of my mind

I know you’ll always stay

And even though I try to make you all mine

I know you'll always walk away

Even though we try

That perfect storm will kill a thousand in its wake
