It was a perfect day
In perfect world
With the perfect life
And a perfect girl
And the sun shone down
On a field of green
And I'm halfway there
Half in-between
There's a poet in the sky
And he's standing on a line that's melting
There's a sail on the sea
And a song on the breeze that's helping
Make this perfect day
Just a perfect day
It was a perfect day
Bathed in perfect light
And the perfect crow
Launched in perfect flight
It's a world askew
Viewed through a screen
And I'm halfway there
Half in between
There's a poet in the sky
And he's standing on a line that's melting
There's a sail on the sea
And a song on the breeze that's helping
Make this perfect day
Just a perfect day
And the tide is rising
And the gears are grinding
And I hear the clock but for now
It's just a perfect day
Just a perfect day
It was a perfect day
With the perfect sky
A parade of clouds
All drifting by
And my mind's a field
Full of fireflies
I chase ideas
Catch only lies
There's a poet in the sky
And he's standing on a line that's melting
There's a sail on the sea
And a song on the breeze that's helping
And I know we're getting there
But I still don't know where we're going
And I keep all I can
But all I don't understand is flowing
Through this perfect day
Let the choir sing
Let the preachers pray
Let the darkness breath
Let the snakes betray
It's just a perfect day
It's just a perfect day
