In a perfect world
We'd walk around the house, wearing nothing but our socks
I'd make you a candle-lit dinner, and then listen to your talk.
At two a.m. we'd go to bed,
We'd cuddle up, I'd kiss your forehead
Whispering sweet nothings in your ear.
In a perfect world
We'd watch Romeo and Juliet and unplug the phone.
You and I, together, could make this house a home.
You would lie on our baby grand
And sing along to "Summer Wind"
Our memories of the future start here.
I'll say goodbye
So we can say hello again tomorrow
Catching snowflakes on our tongues
Falling deeper in this thing called love.
I'll say goodbye
To you, my special one and only
This is a perfect world,
And you're my perfect girl.
In a perfect world
We'd steal a car and drive into the middle of nowhere
And once we arrived I'd sing you a love song, to show I care.
We'd watch the sun fall from the sky,
I'd fall asleep looking in your eyes.
I'm sorry that I can't hit the high... notes.
In a perfect world
I'd write a lot of songs and they'd be played on MTV.
The photographs that you would take would be on my CD's
Then I'd sell out to be with you
We'd run away to Timbuktu.
Lauren, no matter what, I'll still love you.
I'll say goodbye
So we can say hello again tomorrow.
Catching snowflakes on our tongues,
Falling deeper in this thing called love.
I'll say goodbye
To you, my special one and only
This is a perfect world,
And you're my perfect girl.
