[Verse 1]
They say the time has come for us to start again
I believe that's true
They say the time has come for us to make amends
And I believe that too

[Pre-Chorus]
Why, tell me why?
Is it all so hard to find?
I pray each day

[Chorus]
For a perfect world
Where children are laughing
Lovers romancing
Time stands still
A perfect world
There's nothing to cry for
No one to die for
Wonderful
In a perfect world

[Verse 2]
Our father's father says that things were better then
How easy they forget
On every page in every book of history
A thousand tears were shed
There's hope in our hearts and love in our eyes
Day after day, I keep searching
[Pre-Chorus]
Why, tell me why?
Is it all so hard to find?
I pray each day

[Chorus]
For a perfect world
Where children are laughing
Lovers romancing
Time stands still
A perfect world
There's nothing to cry for
No one to die for
Wonderful
In a perfect world

[Bridge]
Show me the way I'm to understand
That you prove to myself that I'm a man
And you love
But you can't look from above
Travel cross the seven seas to be with you
Passion and desire will see me through
The road that I must travel will wind and curl
You're all I ever needed in a perfect world
[Chorus]
For a perfect world
[?]
There's nothing to cry for
No one to die for
In a perfect world
