"Painted Him Perfect" lyrics

"Painted Him Perfect"

It's hard to say this
And I'm a little embarrassed
But you've been asking where my ring is
I guess it's time I be honest

I gave it 4 hours drives, fly in for a night
Sat through couples therapy, tears in my eyes
I'd sing his praises on every stage
And he just had to mention
He hates the attention

I painted pink skies at sunrise
To cover all the blue
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
I drew up excuses and said "that's what love is"
But truth is
Yeah the truth is
I painted him perfect
I painted him perfect

I had to break it to my parents
And Daddy says we don't do divorces
But they got it once I told them some stories
Do you even remember August 14th?
Main stage on the beach
Atlantic City, I was singing he was causing a scene
I'll keep the rest between him and me

I painted pink skies at sunrise
To cover all the blue
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
I drew up excuses and said "that's what love is"
But truth is
Yeah the truth is
I painted him perfect
I painted him perfect

You could say I missed some red flags
But what it comes down to is
I was yellow, he was green
And all we ever made was blue

I painted pink skies at sunrise
To cover all the blue
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
I drew up excuses and said that's what love is

But that's not what love is ...

I shouldn't have to paint
Pink skies at sunrise
To cover all the blue
Hide the shaking ground and storm clouds
So you never knew
I drew up excuses and said that's what love is
But truth is
Yeah, the truth is
I painted him perfect
I painted him perfect

He didn't deserve it
But I painted him perfect

I painted him perfect
I painted him...
