This is about that perfect person for you, and the time you will have with them making it more perfect.

lyrics

I was wondering - if you - could see me
As more than just a friend, eventually
And I was hoping - you could love me
'Cause I'm in love with you, and always have been

There's another side of me - that no one gets to see
I hide it all away - because I'm so afraid
There's another side of you - the one I know is true
You've been hurt before - but this I know for sure

I can write you the perfect song
I'm gonna make it last - I'm gonna make it long
And it might take me fifty years to finish
But if you're here with me - here where you belong
You can help me write it
Write the perfect song

So now I'm wondering - what you're - thinking
Thinking about me - now that you can see
And I'm hoping - that you will love me
'Cause I'm so in love with you
And I don't know what to do

There's a place inside of me - that only you can see
I keep it locked inside - cause I' 'm so scared to try
There's a place inside of you - I know I can get through
We've both been hurt before
But this I know for sure

You can write me the perfect song
Make it from your heart, you can make it strong
And it might take a lifetime to finish,
But I'll be there with you
If you want me to
And I will help you write it
Write the perfect song...
