Not Perfect

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Maybe I was wrong

Maybe you were right

Maybe I don't listen

Like I should

Maybe when I don't

Don't come home at night

It tends to bother you

Maybe I could start

Answering a page

Call if I'd be late

That'd be good

What I'm trying to say

Is that I'm gonna try

And do better for you

I'm aware

That they're some faults

In this relationship

Where I could try

A bit harder than I do

And so I'm telling you

I'm not

I'm not perfect

Just making sure with me

Baby, please

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

So i'm

So imperfect

Just don't give up on me

You will see

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

Maybe I don't ask

You about your day

Maybe I act

Like I don't care

Girl I really do

I just got a whole lot

On my mind right now

Baby, I don't want

You to go away

Everything is wrong

If you're not there

Tell me what you want

And I'm gonna try

To give it all

To you somehow

I'm aware

That they're some faults

In this relationship

Where I could try

A bit harder than I do

And so I'm telling you

I'm not

I'm not perfect

Just making sure with me

Baby, please

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

So i'm

So imperfect

Just don't give up on me

You will see

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

I know

You can do

Better than me

But I don't want

Nobody but you

And I know

You don't think

I appreciate you

Let me show you

That is not true

(2x):

I'm not

I'm not perfect

Just making sure with me

Baby, please

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

So i'm

So imperfect

Just don't give up on me

You will see

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

I'm not

I'm not perfect

Just making sure with me

Baby, please

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl

So i'm

So imperfect

Just don't give up on me

You will see

I'm gonna be so right

For you girl
