Perfect Love

How can I tell you how I feel inside

Will the truth throw you away

Sometimes I look into your eyes and start to cry

Cause we come so close, then we back away

Are we so afraid to surrender all

We come so close to perfect love

What in the world are we so frightened of

Why can't we gamble on desire

Let the spark of love finally catch fire

So close to perfect love

You and I always walk a slender line

Of what is false and what is real

We're not as fragile

As we sometimes like to feel

We can spend our lives running all the time

Or we can make a stand together

We come so close to perfect love

What in the world are we so frightened of

Why can't we gamble on desire

Let the spark of love finally catch fire

So close to perfect love

You can take off those white gloves

I know what you're dreaming of

You and I are running out of alibi's

Let the spark of love finally catch fire

We come so close to perfect love

What in the world are we so frightened of

Why can't we gamble on desire

Let the spark of love finally catch fire

So close to perfect love

So close, baby

So close to perfect love

So close, we come so close

We come so close, baby

We come so close to perfect love

Oh, what are we frightened of

So close, we come so close

We come so close to perfect love
