Perfect Day - Jimmy Somerville

TAKE ME AWAY TO A PLACE BY THE SEA,

TO SIT ON A BEACH IN WINTER MY DREAM,

MY DREAM, THE COLD CUTTING WIND,

THE RED OF YOUR CHEEKS,

A PLACE THAT’S DESERTED,

JUST YOU AND ME, YOU AND ME.

OH THIS WILL BE A PERFECT DAY.

GIVE ME YOUR HAND AND WE’LL WALK BY THE SHORE,

SKIM STONES ON THE WATER,

THE WAVES CRASH AND ROAR,

CRASH AND ROAR,

A CLOUD BURST OF RAIN,

A BOY FILLED WITH JOY,

FOR NOTHING I’IL WORRY IT’S PERFECT THIS DAY,

THIS PERFECT DAY.

OH THIS WILL BE A PERFECT DAY.

OOH DON`T YOU KNOW THAT’S WHAT LOVE IT CAN DO,

OOH DON’T YOU KNOW THAT IT BEING WITH YOU,

OHH DON’T YOU KNOW THAT’S WHAT LOVING CAN DO,

OHH DON’T YOU KNOW THAT IT’S BEING WITH YOU.

PRETENDINGYOU’RE NEPTUNE,

WRITE NAMES IN THE SAND,

LIPS BRUSHED WITH SALT,

I TELL YOU I LOVE YOU,

YOU SMILE.

THE SKY’S GROWING DARKER,

THE SEA STEALS OUR HEARTS,

IT WHISPERS GOODBYE AS WE’RE DRIVING AWAY,

I’IL NEVER FORGET THIS PERFECT DAY.

OH THIS HAS BEEN A PERFECT DAY.
