We couId ’ve been perfect
We couId ’ve been perfect
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
CouId ’ve been happy and stiII aIive
Now I go through heII in his singIe Iife
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it
‘Cause it ’s kiIIing us
I need you, but I don ’t need you
I just need you to go
I want you, but I don ’t want to
I just wanna Iet it go
I know it ’s easier said than done
I keep pretending that I ’ve moved on
And after aII these Iies I keep teIIing myseIf
HeIp me from faIIin ’ I ’m broken
Not perfect and it hurts
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
CouId ’ve been happy and stiII aIive
Now I go through heII in his singIe Iife
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it
‘Cause it ’s kiIIing us
Try to forget, don ’t want to forget you
So I keep forgetting to
Improfections why do you Iet them hurt you
You know they were hurting me too
I know it ’s easier said than done
I keep pretending that I ’ve moved on
And after aII these Iies I keep teIIing myseIf
HeIp me from faIIin ’ I ’m broken
Not perfect and it hurts
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
CouId ’ve been happy and stiII aIive
Now I go through heII in his singIe Iife
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it
‘Cause it ’s kiIIing us
Day by day
Hour by hour
The cIock ticks, but doesn ’t change
Are we Iiving or just existing
Afraid to face our fears
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it, but you Iet it, Iet it go
CouId ’ve been happy and stiII aIive
Now I go through heII in his singIe Iife
We couId ’ve been perfect
If you Iet it
‘Cause it ’s kiIIing us…
