Lyrics

Perfect day
Tim Dorsey copyright Tim Dorsey music 2003


I was perfect on that day when I tried it for the first time then I inhaled

Once I got started I slid down the track
I couldn?t stop it I could?nt turn back
my lungs were burnin? and I knew my life was over now
till I saw your face and the tears of baptism came down

G Cm

Hold me in your arms ,that?s all i need (that?s all i need)
Let me hear your heart; to the rythm I breathe
I?m so glad you?re the person that i was first attatched to
my very first friend will always be you

ch
O mothers ways are always with me every way and
o mothers ways were not quite perfect but somehow she made that day a perfect day

G Cm

The first time that i flew it was in your hands
together we both grew while exploring new lands
all of my senses had been ignited while I was at your side
i was a lucky boy the day you smiled and you cried

ch

G Cm/F G/E Cm/Eb
instrumental

Now i?m on my own, I guess I?m alright.
But I reminisce sometimes late into the night.
Seems like every living day,I?m tryin? to find another face
that will change this empty world into a friendly place.


o mom your ways are always with me every way
o mother you were not quite perfect but that?s okay
o mothers ways are always with me in every way
o mom your child is not quite perfect but i must say you made my day a perfect day

I?ll be perfect on that day when I try it for the last time and I exhale
