In A Perfect World (Acoustic) Lyrics
I’m so scared of falling
I was in and out, up and down, too afraid to be open
I found myself in you, and it made me feel so fucking scared
‘Cause when I am open
All my past and all my pain floats up to the surface
You can even cut me down with a smile, it hurts so bad
So I leave when it gets too good
Yeah, yeah
I leave when it gets too good
But in a perfect world I am here with you
And I kiss you slow in a dim-lit room
When you ask me if I love you, I say I do
I’m not running from my problems, and I’m not running from you
And we’re so damn happy, and I’m not confused
I’m not looking for an escape all ’cause I’m scared I might lose you
Ooh, in a perfect world
Yeah, at least you’re self-aware, I’ll give you some credit
But walking out on something perfect’s really stupid, yeah
Baby, I said it
You’re so scared of regretting something
Before you can even regret it
And we could be great
And it would be great if you’d let it
But you leave when it gets too good
Yeah
You leave when it gets too good (I leave when it gets too good)
But in a perfect world I am here with you
And I kiss you slow in a dim-lit room
When you ask me if I love you, I say I do
I’m not running from my problems, and I’m not running from you
And we’re so damn happy, and I’m not confused
I’m not looking for an escape all ’cause I’m scared I might lose you
Ooh, in a perfect world
I leave when it gets too good
When it gets too good, you always
Leave when it gets too good
Oh, but in a perfect world there’s just us two
And I let myself get lost in you
When you ask me if I love you, I say I do
I’m not running from my problems, and I’m not running from you
