Lyrics

I wouldn’t say I was lonely
I was doing just fine on my own
With an eye out for my one and only
Prince Charming to make himself known
So I guess I didn’t see you
Right before my eyes
It took so long for me to
Finally realize -

(Chorus)
You might not be as perfect
As I’ve romanticized
I never thought true love
Would be so hard to recognize
Generous with laughter
And strong when times are tough
You may not be perfect
But you’re close enough.

Maybe somewhere there’s a perfect lover
But I don’t know who that could be
And there’s a difference I have discovered
Between perfect, and perfect for me
And nobody else except you
Would so gracefully hang tough
Until the arms-length where I kept you
Wasn’t close enough
(Chorus)

Close enough to share my joy
Not afraid to share my tears
Close enough to lend me strength
And help me face my fears
You hold me close, but not too tight
Help to make my wrongs all right
Now I need, yes I need you
There it is, I need you
(chorus)
