I'M Not Perfect, But I Swear I'M Perfect For You

All your friends think that I’m crazy 
But they only see that I’m not perfect
I know 
I have my issues and only I’m to blame 
I’m not an angel
This I know better than anyone
But I swear
I will share the air that I breathe
I will give you my heart 

And I don’t feel like I’m strong enough 
I can’t walk this world alone
I need you 
My hopes, they are high
I’m not perfect
But I swear, I’m perfect for you

I’m trying real hard not to shake
I’m biting my tongue
So say my name
I just want to hear your voice 
And I wish that I had my arms around you 
But I’ll just keep dreaming instead

And there’s no guarantee that this will be easy 
I didn’t know I needed you 
And now I’m beating myself up just thinking of you 
I need a miracle
I need you to love me endlessly
But that’s impossible

I’m feeling alive with every breath I take
I’ve been struggling to make things right 
And letting you go was wrong
Now I spend another night alone
My skin is cold without your touch 

Every night I cry and die a little more each time
Knowing that I don’t have you 
Memories take me back 
It won’t ever go back to the way it was
And I wish that this time would ease the pain
And I know I’m not perfect
But I’m hoping that you’ll see me through
I’m hoping that I’ll have you 
I just want you to see
That I’m perfect for you
