The Perfect Night (From The Vault)

(Whoa oh)

Let's go

Lights go out in a perfect town
Silence is a perfect sound
Our lies spin the time around
In a perfect town
Can you feel the unity
Can you feel the sanctity
As we fill our hearts
With this eulogy

Then she looked right at me
A sudden joy had filled the scene
The melody and the words fit perfectly
Let me show you what perfect means

Perfect isn't something to believe
Says the crowd of non beliefs
Perfect can heal the dying sun
But perfect feels she's already won
Okay, maybe it's a fake
But perfect feels she's doing okay
All I know is everything's alright
In a perfect night

(Whoa oh)

The house is empty on a perfect street
The stars in the sky were bound to meet
This isn't snow this winter
It's just sleet
Can you see the happiness
Can you see the loneliness
As we void our eyes of hopelessness

Then she looked right at me
A sudden joy had filled the scene
The melody and the words fit perfectly
Let me show you what perfect means

Perfect isn't something to believe
Says the crowd of non beliefs
Perfect can heal the dying sun
But perfect feels she's already won
Okay, maybe it's a fake
But perfect feels she's doing okay
All I know is everything's alright
In a perfect night

(Whoa oh)

According to the dictionary
Perfect means lacking nothing essential to the whole
Complete, unmistakable, kind
But nowhere in the dictionary
States the logical fact that's quite intact
That perfect is your official being
And that you are officially mine
