Perfect world

  • Sometimes I wonder where it is love goes
    I don't know if even Heaven knows
    But I know you had some dreams that didn't
    quite come true
    And now I'm not the one, little girl, who's
    keeping you
    I was either standing in your shadow or
    blocking your light
    Though I kept on trying I could not make
    it right
    For you girl-
    There's just not enough love in the world
    I know people hurt you so bad
    They don't know the damage they can do,
    and it makes me so sad-
    How we knock each other down just like
    children on a playground
    Even after that ol' sun went down-
    I was either standing in your shadow or
    or blocking your light
    Though I kept on trying I could not
    make it right
    For you girl-
    There's just not enough love in the world
    Oh darlin', this is still a shady little town
    And sometimes it's so hard to smile-
    For the world, for the camera-
    And still have something left
    You don't have to prove nothin' to nobody
    Just take good care of yourself
    I'm not easy to live with-
    I know that it's true
    You're no picnic either, babe
    And that's one of the things I loved about you
    But a time will come around when we need to settle down
    Got to get of this merry-go-round
    I was either standing in your shadow or
    blocking you're light
    Though I kept on trying I could not make
    it right
    For you girl-
    There's just not enough love in the world
