Imperfectly Perfect

By Bruce Clifford

Tell me what’s not so perfect about you?
You are perfect in everything that matters.
Imperfectly perfect in every way.

Show me how distant the stars really are.
Mesmerize me within every word that you say.
Traveling to Nuuk, sipping on beers at a bar.
Nothing could change how amazing you truly are.

Tell me about life far across the sea.
I could never fault you for what was in recent history.
You’re imperfectly perfect in all you say and do.
We brush of the dust and fly to Saturn’s different moons.

Tell me what’s no so perfect about you?
Imperfectly perfect in every song and in every tune.
I get lost in the thought of not always knowing what to say.
Imperfectly perfect in every word and every way.

Tell me what’s not so perfect about you?
You are perfect in everything that matters.
Imperfectly perfect in every way.
