Seems I just can't do enough I could never win your love Why should I try When you never share your feelings How could I be so nave Is it so hard to believe That you excel in emotional concealing No matter what I do I never measure up for you But you just keep that smile on your face No matter how much I try You're never really satisfied Until you run away and hide In your perfect world Where there's no one to blame No one can hurt your feelings And you don't feel no pain Everybody loves you And nobody gets burned As long as you are living In your perfect world It seems like everyone gets screened On your answering machine Can't take the call And let down your defenses You can't let anybody see Your real personality Is it pride, or just your false pretenses Maybe a part of you has died Because you keep it all inside But still you wear that smile on your face It seems no matter what I do I just can't get through to you But I always know where to find you In your perfect world Where nothing can go wrong You're always in control And we all get along And everything is beautiful No need for concern As long as you are living In your perfect world Maybe a part of you has died Because you keep it all inside Is it hard to keep that smile on you face It seems no matter what I do I just can't get through to you But I always know where to find you In your perfect world Where there's no one to blame No one can hurt your feelings And you don't feel no pain Everybody loves you And nobody gets burned As long as you are living In your perfect world Where nothing can go wrong You're always in control And we all get along And everything is beautiful No need for concern As long as you are living In your perfect world
