Imperfect You (revised)
I spent my life in broken dreams
Echoes of my silent screams
Wounds that never seemed to mend
Thought I'd never trust again
Then along came imperfect you
With your ability to see through
Every scar and every wall
(every wall)
I’m watching my defenses crumble and fall
Crumble and fall
(crumble and fall)
In the shadows of my past
Love was like a fleeting cast
You appeared a steady light
(a steady light)
Lifting me from all those endless nights
Ahhhhh
Along came imperfect you
My doubts are fading away
(fading away)
With your patience I bravely stay
(stay)
Our heartbeats echo in the night
For the first time imperfect feels right
Along came imperfect you
Holding me and all my scars
I was shattered torn apart
You’re rebuilding my broken heart
(rebuilding my heart)
With each flaw we find our place
Oooh
In your arms I feel so safe
Imperfectly perfect you
All my fears you see right through
Holding me and all my scars
I feel so safe in your imperfect arms
Oooh
With your ability to see through
Every scar and every wall
(every wall)
I’m watching my defenses crumble and fall
You’re rebuilding my broken heart
(my heart)
You hold me and all my scars
(you hold my scars)
Mmmmmm, yeah yeah
Echoes of my silent screams
Wounds that never seemed to mend
Thought I'd never trust again
Then along came imperfect you
With your ability to see through
Every scar and every wall
(every wall)
I’m watching my defenses crumble and fall
Crumble and fall
(crumble and fall)
In the shadows of my past
Love was like a fleeting cast
You appeared a steady light
(a steady light)
Lifting me from all those endless nights
Ahhhhh
Along came imperfect you
My doubts are fading away
(fading away)
With your patience I bravely stay
(stay)
Our heartbeats echo in the night
For the first time imperfect feels right
Along came imperfect you
Holding me and all my scars
I was shattered torn apart
You’re rebuilding my broken heart
(rebuilding my heart)
With each flaw we find our place
Oooh
In your arms I feel so safe
Imperfectly perfect you
All my fears you see right through
Holding me and all my scars
I feel so safe in your imperfect arms
Oooh
With your ability to see through
Every scar and every wall
(every wall)
I’m watching my defenses crumble and fall
You’re rebuilding my broken heart
(my heart)
You hold me and all my scars
(you hold my scars)
Mmmmmm, yeah yeah
