The Smashing Pumpkins - Perfect Lyrics

I know we're just like old friends
We just can't pretend that lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel that something has been lost

But please, you know you're just like me
Next time I promise we'll be perfect
Perfect
Perfect

Strangers down the line, lovers out of time
Memories unwind
So far, I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was

Angel, you know it's not the end
We'll always be good friends
The letters have been sent on

So please, you always were so free
You'll see, I promise we'll be perfect
Perfect

Strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we sleep
Perfect

You know this has to be
We always were so free
We promised that we'd be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect
