ABOUT THIS SONG
You’re Perfect is a love song. It’s a ballad about when things go wrong despite your best efforts and how you hope you are understood. We are human after all, and messing up seems to be what we are best at.
BACKGROUND
It’s a quick demo and recording that we did at home, dad and me. It’s only a simple piano & instrumental arrangement built around a few chords and a slow melody. Nothing elaborate, but hopefully its purity shines through. I will try do it again soon to make it a little better.
Enjoy it!
Alycia
LYRIC SHEET
VERSE-A
Love me true
Love me blue
Coz I’m made for you
Sometimes I’m up
and Sometimes I’m down
But I care for you
I get it wrong
You pretend I’m strong
I’m crazy for you
CHORUS-A
But do I …. oh do I make your world go round?
But do I …. oh do I make your world go round?
INSTRUMENTAL
VERSE-B
Mistakes I make
Keep me awake
Oh You know it’s true
What a shame
I’m just not the same
Everyday for you
Love me till the end
When dark skies bend
And I’ll run with you
CHORUS-B
But do I …. oh do I make your world go round?
But do I …. oh do I make your world go round?
We’re sailing some pretty big ships here and we don’t wanna hit the ground
We’re sailing some pretty big ships here and we don’t wanna hit the ground
BRIDGE/OUTRO
Perfect, just perfect – how I wish I can be that person
Perfect, just perfect – you gotta tell me how I (can) learn it
Coz you always deserve the best from me, (from me)
You always deserve the best from me, from me
Coz you’re perfect, you’re perfect, you’re perfect, you’re perfect
Tempo 78
Key: A Major
A little reverb on the vocals, but no auto-tune, no compression, and no EQ.
I stumbled across this song only because I came to listen to your other tune. Wow this is a really nice slow love song. You are really talented Alycia. Honestly I had tears in my eyes by the time I got to the end. Personal reasons, but your song is so emotional. I love it.
