A Fantasy Come To Life

 A Fantasy Come To Life

There’s no such thing as a perfect love

But you have to be as close as it gets

I’ve heard of good enough for eternity

I’d do forever and a day with you. 

You’re as close as I’ve ever known 

To a fantasy come to life 

Maybe that’s why I don’t feel sufficient

Good enough to be your man 

The last one who’d be in your life

It’s not that you’re unobtainable 

More like just out of reach

Because I elevated you

And left you there

It’s not that I feel unworthy 

Just crowded out of your room

Close enough to see and hear

Too far to see if you’re real

There’s no such thing as a perfect love

But you have to be as close as it gets

I’ve heard of good enough for eternity

I’d do forever and a day with you. 

You’re as close as I’ve ever known 

To a fantasy come to life 

I wonder if you would reach out for me 

in the chaos, see my face 

Or as I’ve put you out of reach 

I’ve become out of sight out of mind 

Because why look back when

The futures only ahead

And I’m the past

Maybe I created this pain

But it’s only in my head 

Like the perfect fantasy

That I’ve retconned to be

There’s no such thing as a perfect love

But you have to be as close as it gets

I’ve heard of good enough for eternity

I’d do forever and a day with you. 

You’re as close as I’ve ever known 

To a fantasy come to life 

In black and white you’re everything

Anyone would ever want 

But when every angle comes to light

What was perfect doesn’t seem right. 

There’s no such thing as a perfect love

But you have to be as close as it gets

I’ve heard of good enough for eternity

I’d do forever and a day with you. 

You’re as close as I’ve ever known 

To a fantasy come to life
