Lyrics
Perfect Day
I'd feel so alive
I'd feel so alive
Can you see
Can you see me
Do you know
Do you know what I would do
I would do with
just one perfect day
I would shed
I would shed
my skin this thin veneer
it keeps me here
it keeps me wanting
more than this
I'd feel so alive
I'd feel so alive
Do you see
Do you see me
Can you paint
Can you paint a picture for me-
picture perfect blue sky,
sunny day
Paint the trees
Paint the trees
apple green make me believe
these leaves are real-
green leaves are falling...
one perfect day
I'd feel so alive
I could skip around the sun
climb a cloud to the moon
I'd feel so alive
on just one perfect day with you
Can you see
Can you see me
Do you know
Do you know what I dream of
I dream of breathing easy one perfect day
See the ship
See the ship
It glides and I-I catch a ride
ride into the sunset
one perfect day
I'd feel so alive
I'd feel so alive
Do you see
Do you see me
Can you show
Can you show me
city life-pretty life made
easy one perfect day
Paint the towns
Paint the towns
all around around me-set me right
beside the nine to fives
one perfect day
I'd feel so alive
I could skip around the sun
climb a cloud to the moon
I'd feel so alive
I could jump high in the sky
race a star to the moon
I'd feel so alive
on just one day to dream with
one more day to dance with
just one perfect day with you
