Story Behind The Song

Story of a lost love who leaves to chase her dreams in LA/Hollywood

Lyrics

"Another Perfect Day"

Music/Lyrics by John Kelly Wilson

Verse
It was almost three years ago sometimes I lose track of the time
You said you wanted LA and I should just give up on tryin
Our time had come and gone and you we're moving on
You'd met a new love which meant that we were done
So as you started to cry I saw the hesitation in your eyes

Chorus
As the sun goes down and sets on another perfect day
the orange and blue meet for an early evening display
but I know there's something missing I know it's true
I know that something missing is you
As the sun goes down and sets on another perfect day

Verse
It always seemed so good and we both loved the country life
Warm weather gorgeous sunsets I knew we'd soon be husband and wife
We laughed so much and shared such a deep love
I'd felt this was something clearly guided from above
I'd never felt so close to anyone in all my life

Chorus
As the sun goes down and sets on another perfect day
the orange and blue meet for an early evening display
but I know there's something missing it's true
I know that something missing is you
As the sun goes down and sets on another perfect day

Bridge
But the stars we watched at night soon turned to stars in your eyes
Put there by the friend of your friend who told you Hollywood lies
That was where your destiny was and he would guide the way
But that meant going with him and that you were leaving on that day
And the sun was setting on another perfect day

Verse
So here we are several years later and I'm thinking of you
Never knowing what happened except I'm here without you
Watching the setting sun give way to the stars
And knowing what we once had will never be ours
It's so sad as the sun sets on another Perfect day

Chorus
As the sun goes down and sets on another perfect day
the orange and blue meet for an early evening display
but I know there's something missing it's true
I know that something missing is you
It's so sad as the sun slowly sets on another perfect day
It's so sad as the sun slowly sets on another perfect day
