Patient as the afterglow on a straight road
I am more in love with you in the wake of a thunderstorm
Will you tell me quietly of your broken bones
I will try to worry silently on the car ride home
Details in the distance find a way to dance across your lips and hands
Of cinemas and cigarettes and dead end roads down by the river bend
I've never been, will I ever go? And if I did would I ever really know
How does it feel to walk around carrying the memory of home?
I am imperfect and you are imperfect
I thought you were perfect and you thought I was too
Time isn't perfect and you don't deserve that
I didn't know I still had growing to do
You are the day and also the night
And the easiness of the changing between
Sweet in the sun observing the sky
We wait for the rain on summer concrete
I am wise and also I know nothing and I am not sorry for
Telling you I loved you fast because I did of that I am sure
I am imperfect and you are imperfect
I thought you were perfect and you thought I was too
Time isn't perfect and you don't deserve that
I didn't know I still had growing to do
Love is imperfect but loving is worth it
I don't want perfect I'd rather have truth
But truth is imperfect and I'm sorry I hurts us
I didn't know I still had growing to do
I was afraid that I'd let you down
And you were afraid that I'd let you down too
Fear almost stopped us from loving completely
I'm so glad that it didn't
I'm so glad I got to love you
