"The Past Is Perfect" lyrics

"The Past Is Perfect"

I could have just pretended
And nothing would have changed
But I wanted to imagine
A future bright and strange

It's really been a long time
The summer's turned to fall
I wish I could remember
The glory of it all

But I don't remember
I don't recall
But I don't remember
Anything at all

The past is perfect
It was worth it
I deserved it
The past is perfect
I can't hurt it
Anymore
I took it all in stride
Although I never did it right
The past is perfect
I deserved it
Don't you know?

The future's looking brighter
But I can't hear its call
I wish I could remember
The storm before the calm

But I don't remember
But I don't remember
I don't recall
But I don't remember
I don't remember
Anything at all

The past is perfect
It was worth it
I deserved it
The past is perfect
I can't hurt it
Anymore
I took it all in stride
Although I never did it right
The past is perfect
I deserved it
Don't you know?

Oh, no
Oh, no
Oh, no
Oh, no

The past is perfect
I deserved it
Don't you know?

The past is perfect
It was worth it
I deserved it
The past is perfect
I can't hurt it
Anymore
I took it all in stride
Although I never did it right
Oh, no
The past is perfect
I deserved it
Don't you know?
