In A Perfect World Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I wanted to cry on the spot
I could very easily with just one thought
The day that you'll be leaving me is on my mind
And I don't wanna think about it all the time
How will I live when you are gone?
You're already drifting away, life is not long
I hope you stay with me for quite a while
I don't wanna be in a world without your smile

[Chorus]
Who knew life could be torture?
You're only getting older
In a perfect world
For forever I could hold ya
I wish there was no evil
No sickness or disease oh
In a perfect world
Nothing could take you away from me, oh
[Verse 2]
"Life is unfair" is not a good reason
It's like they don't care, dismissing all my feelings
Throw that in the air, so then I have to breathe in
Makes it all worse thinking no one understands how I'm feeling
You would stay with me forever if you could
Hate that things are out of our control
I really wish they would give us a break
Leave the misery for another day
I'm tryna cope with the pain
And I hate when people say that it happened for a reason
As if there's one for leaving
Know they're just trying to help, but it's not helping Please believe it
I don't wanna hear about the better place that you're in
There ain't nowhere you can go that's better than with me forever
And there ain't no words that could fill this hole in my chest
And when it's my time and they put my body to rest
I hope I see you again
They keep saying I'm strong
But it's exhausting to be suffering this long, long, long

[Chorus]
Who knew life could be torture?
You're only getting older
In a perfect world
For forever I could hold ya
I wish there was no evil
No sickness or disease, oh
In a perfect world
Nothing could take you away from me, oh
[Bridge]
They say that grief is the price you pay for love
I got ripped off that day you left
I could barely breathe, oh
They say that grief is the price you pay for love
I got ripped off that day you left
I could barely breathe

[Outro]
Who knew life could be torture?
You're only getting older
In a perfect world (In a perfect world)
For forever I could hold ya
I wish there was no evil
No sickness or disease, oh
In a perfect world (In a perfect world)
Nothing could take you away from me, oh
