Perfect For Me

I was thinking 'bout the time you were on the phone
When you told your mama you were sleeping all alone
I had my hands running slowly through your long blonde hair
Red flags waving but I still don't care
I was thinking 'bout the time when I dropped you off
At your friend's house 'cause you had to get your stuff
When I moved on over for a kiss goodbye
Well you left me high and dry

So you can light me up
Or you can burn me down
But the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Will turn it around
So you can tell me lies
And I would still believe
That the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Is perfect for me
Perfect for me
Oh, the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Is perfect for me

I was talking to your mama on the telephone
When she told me that she didn't know when you'd be home
'Cause you're out with someone at a party
While I'm home writing songs about the heartache
I was thinking 'bout the time when you missed your train
Had a friend pick you up to keep you out the rain
When you both stayed out until the sunrise
I knew something wasn't right

So you can light me up
Or you can burn me down
But the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Will turn it around
So you can tell me lies
And I would still believe
That the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Is perfect for me
Perfect for me
Oh, the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Is perfect for me
Perfect for me
Oh, the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Is perfect for me

So you can tell me lies
I would still believe
That the love, oh, the love that I have for you
Is perfect for me
