In a Perfect World Lyrics

If I ever 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 enough

I hope you stay with me for quite a while

I don't wanna be in a world without your smile

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

"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 was 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

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

They say that grief is the price you pay for love

I got ripped off that day you left

I could barely breathe

They say that grief is the price you pay for love

I got ripped off that day you left

I could barely breathe

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
