You Were Perfect For Me

Its the way we look in eachothers eyes before we lock lips,

It's the way when we hold hands and the butterflies don't wanna sit,

It's just the way I've always wanted love.....

It's the cliche love story,

Yeah the one where we get hurt,

But in the end we always get up outa' the dirt,

And decide we are so much better together,

We have that love where we can just look at each other and know when something's wrong,

And I remember that day,

When you looked so broken,

Said I deserved so much more,

Well that's not what I'm looking for...

So before you walk out that door,

Saying you can't do this anymore,

Know you're the only one I'll ever look for,

'Cause you're all I need and more,

And if that's not right to you,

Know that I'll wait,

I'll cry myself to sleep and all alone,

Well the next week you show up at my door saying,

You can't take this distance anymore,

So we go back to when,

Its the way we look in eachothers eyes before we lock lips,

It's the way when we hold hands and the, butterflies don't wanna sit,

It's just the way I've always wanted love.....

It's the cliche love story,

Yeah the one where we get hurt,

But in the end we always get up outa' the dirt,

And decide we are so much better together,

'Cause you're perfect for me,

One of these days,

When we have so much more to live for,

We'll have those fights,

Where we get back up swingin' ,

We'll leave a couple marks,

Yeah right there on the heart,

I'll say it was never supposed to hurt like this,

And maybe we need some distance, (Yeah some distance)

And months later when you come around,

Sayin' you've moved on,

That the distance did some good,

And that she's having your baby,

But it was never meant to be this way,

That's when I'll say,

It used to be the way we looked in eachothers eyes before we'd lock lips,

It used to be the way when we held hands and the butterflies didn't wanna sit,

It was the way I've always wanted my love to be.....

It was the cliche love story,

Yeah the one where we got hurt,

But in the end we'd always get up outa' the dirt,

And decided we were so much better together,

Yet here we are now,

Grown so far apart,

And I know I'll never forget you,

Your forever in my heart,

Times pass by and I still don't know why,

And for all those nights I cry

Myself to sleep and all alone,

I ask myself why,

Sometimes I just wish you'd pick up your phone,

Dial my number,

Say I hope you're doin fine,

And then I'd lie,

'Cause I don't know how to move on,

Maybe my souls too far gone,

Or maybe, (yeah just maybe)

You were always perfect for me...

It used to be the way we looked in eachothers eyes before we'd lock lips,

It used to be the way when we held hands and the butterflies didn't wanna sit,

Its the way I've always wanted my love to be.....

It was the cliche love story,

Yeah the one where we got hurt,

But in the end we'd always get up outa' the dirt,

And decided we were so much better together,

'Cause you used to be perfect for me...
