Perfect lyrics

This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away
I came here today with a purpose
Should I try or just let it go?
`cause these things I`d like to ask you
Are things I can`t explain
Or should I keep your plans outside the porch last Saturday?

Should I have succumbed to your courtesy?
I could see you were trying to get my attention
But I pushed it away

This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away
This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away

But tonight it seemed suddenly perfect
Still no promises made
The balance of power has shifted
Were you trying to let me in?
Or was I trying so hard
That all of my confidence was lost tonight?
Confused and regretful, I cracked
Swallowed it back, and left with no spine intact

Should I have succumbed to your courtesy?
I could see you were trying to get my attention
But I pushed it away

This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away
This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away
This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away
This time I think it could be

Maybe we were meant
To see what`s right
She held a sort of it
Just a taste of life
To see what`s right
To make sense out of it

What a shame that we`re slipping away now (away now)
Going away now
To see what`s out there
`cause you`re all that`s here for me

This time I think it could be perfect
But you`re pushing away
This time I think it could be perfect
You`re all that`s here for me
This time I think it could be perfect -acap
