The ghost of an unkissed kiss A field of snow without footprints – It'll always be perfect, but we didn't get to live it The lights that shone for us across the water Through the misty dusk – It'll always be perfect, but we didn't get to live it These lonely places were touched by love – Dust for the traces and they'll show up. These are the words we'll pack away These are the feelings that will stay. Dry eyes, dry eyes It was never going to end in dry eyes We'll never know what we let go. How do you push aside Something that just feels so right? It'll always be perfect But I didn't get to live it We found what so many seek But it was never ours to keep It'll always be perfect, but we didn't get to live it I know how unfair been on her, That I could have made it easier But I wanted her so bad, you see, I just wouldn't stop at anything. Wrong as it was to do, Those eyes were made to look into It'll always be perfect, But we didn't get to live it. So I would just do wrong Until theache became too strong It'll always be perfect, but we didn't get to live it.
