In a perfect world
I would reach the sky
Maybe even fly
In a perfect world
Everyone would climb
I could reach so high and high and… high
You don’t know what you’re missing
I know you’re out there
You’re not that far
My heart’s all it takes to find you in the crowd
Every time I close my eyes
I can see that someone’s here, someone high
And every time I realise
I can feel your presence here tonight
In a perfect world
There’s no time going by
And no one will ever die
In a perfect world
Every bird would fly
Everyone would reach the sky
Everyone here is happy
No wounds to heal, so
No matching scars
A cry only means you’re laughing much too loud
Every time I close my eyes
I can see that someone’s here, someone high
And every time I realise
I can feel your presence here tonight
But in my perfect world
I’d give up all this
Just to be with you
