Story Behind The Song
I read an article in our local paper once about this woman's search for something perfect and it inspired this song.

Lyrics
Something Perfect by Laura Bachynski
copyright 2008
I've been looking for something perfect...some perfect lover, some perfect friend.
It's not that easy but the gift of grace arrives through sorrow...shows me your face, shows me your face.
And even though I know I'll never find these things , disappointment bows my head. But looking down I notice things I've seen before but from this angle I see more.
And in the dark I drag along this dusty road. The roots invade, the cracks divide. But I don't need a burning bush to light my way. I feel the flames of faith inside.
I've been looking for something perfect...some perfect lover, some perfect friend.
It's not that easy but the gift of grace arrives through sorrow...shows me your face, shows me your face.
And even though I know I'll never find these things , disappointment bows my head. But looking down I notice things I've seen before but from this angle I see more.
And if I had the chance to walk the smoother road, looking back I think I know ...all the pitstops , every bump along the way helped my path of faith to grow.
I've been looking for something perfect...some perfect lover, some perfect friend.
It's not that easy but the gift of grace arrives through sorrow...shows me your face, shows me your face.
I've been looking....for something perfect.
