You’re imperfect 

so imperfect 

I worship 

the idea of you 

 

in practice 

things go badly 

in my mind 

it always works 

 

I need you to be strong for me

in those moments when all seems lost 

 

I’ll be whatever you want

in our hearts we know we’re not wrong 

 

just imperfect 

so imperfect 

we’ve got our work 

cut out for us 

 

for a lifetime 

we’ll get it right then

maybe once before 

time runs out
