Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I couldn't get it together
I'm running on the red
I'm all up in my head
With the things that I said
I hope honesty is the cure
The way that we can grow
Cause I'm caught between the faith you have
And the things I think you know
[Chorus]
I just wish I could be perfect for you
I know you say that I'm worth it for you
But, I don't know if I deserve love so true
Every time my heart goes through a code blue
I just wish I could be perfect
Ohhh
Perfect for you
Ohhh
[Verse 2]
Trying to love myself, but it's hard cause I want to love you
If you said I am a good man, I don't know if I could even trust you
And you're trying to be
As understanding as you can be of me
But, when I think of you
Put myself in your shoes
My flaws are all seen
[Chorus]
I just wish I could be perfect for you
I know you say that I'm worth it for you
But, I don't know if I deserve love so true
Every time my heart goes through a code blue
I just wish I could be perfect
Ohhh
Perfect for you
Ohhh
Perfect for you
