Nothing Is Perfect Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Nothing has come between us
Nothing is real, nothing is real
Nothing can hurt us
Nothing is full of suspense
Nothing reveals
Nothing is worth it
Nothing has come between us
Nothing provides, nothing provides
[Chorus 1]
Nothing is perfect, it's endless, don't wait up for me
No fences, no exits, no lies
Nothing is perfect, it's gorgeous, the sky meets the sea
But nothing is perfect, nothing is perfect for me
[Verse 2]
Nothing has come between us
Nothing is wrong, nothing is wrong
Nothing is painless
Nothing has always been here, when nothing belongs
Nothing is wrong
[Chorus 2]
Nothing is perfect, I earned it, all absence achieved
No fences, no exits, no lies
Nothing is perfect, it's gorgeous, the sky meets the sea
And nothing is perfect, nothing is perfect
[Bridge]
Dissolve to fade
Dissolve to fade
Dissolve to fade
Dissolve to fade
[Outro]
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing
Nothing, Nothing, Nothing
