Perfect - Remastered Songtext
von The Lightning Seeds

See the rivers filled with rain
I wish it could be blue again
Hazy petrol nights, crimson sun on traffic lights

A perfect day, a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it′s light
Streets are full of every night
With people buzzing round the lights
And waving at the taxis driving by

Now tomorrow's here today (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
And yesterday′s today's just fade away (ooh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

Watch the morning chase the night
Rolling home, it's getting light
Feeling sleepy, full of wine
Fall in bed, just in time


Perfect stare with perfect eyes
That kiss you as they tell you lies
And wonder where you′re going
Where have you been?
In towers high with time to fill
Gardens in your windowsill
In between with pavement and the sky

Now tomorrow′s near today (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
And yesterday's today′s just fade away (ooh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

Tell me why
All the words will never come out right
From the blind
I've been driving through the danger zones

A perfect day, a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it′s light
Perfect silence, me and you
It's really me, I really do
Remember every moment magnified

Now tomorrow′s here today (ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
And yesterday's today's just fade away (ooh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)

Tell me why
All the words will never come out right
From the blind
I′ve been driving through the dangerous signs
