Perfect

Chorus

It was perfect

The way your hand touched mine

And we held to time

Somehow we died

Life was perfect

For a little while

But everything comes down

Somehow I find

We were young

We were free

We had everything

And wanted nothing

But time gets you

And time breaks you

It tears you apart

We made it so far

And now I know

Chorus

It was perfect

The way your hand touched mine

And we held to time

Somehow we died

Life was perfect

For a little while

But everything comes down

Somehow I find

And life

It’s escaped us now

And the years turn round

And now I’ve found

I wish

I could turn back time

Back to when I’d find

You were still mine

Chorus

It was perfect

The way your hand touched mine

And we held to time

Somehow we died

Life was perfect

For a little while

But everything comes down

Somehow I find

Somehow I find

Chorus

It was perfect

The way your hand touched mine

And we held to time

Somehow we died

Life was perfect

For a little while

But everything comes down

Somehow I find

It all comes down

We all have those moments.... moments that will be idealised in our minds as perfect.  The best moments of our lives, but the truth is... nothings perfect.  Even in the happiest moment if you dig deep there is always something there threatening to destroy it.  The real challenge is blocking out the threat and living in the happy moment.... I think that if we as humans were better at this, we'd all have a lot more "perfect" moments.
