Perfect Excuse
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.
I wouldn't come alone
I took my memories along
If there's something that i've learned
You can't deny the way
The past dictates each dawn
It's not that i'm afraid
God knows i've made my set of rounds
It's just the way it feels tonight
That makes me lose the plot
What's really goin' down
Too hot to handle
Too hard to lose
Fallin' in love with you
Is a perfect excuse
You make me feel at ease
But i know the final show
If there's something that i've learned
It's better to have left
Before you have to go
It's not that o'm afraid
God knows i've made my set of rounds
You got that twinkle in your eye
That makes me lose my grip
What's really goin' down
Too hot to handle
Too hard to lose
Fallin' in love with you
Is a perfect excuse
Too many heartbeats
Hidin' the truth
Fallin' in love with you
Is a perfect excuse
