Dear Perfect Girl, Grounded in the real world Taking care of herself like you’re rooted in a material one Your eyes and smile never cease to amaze But it’s your ambitions that set my heart ablaze Your laugh puts a smile on my face That seems to erase and replace The negative and repetitive If only for a second I love our similarities But our differences make it worthwile From your taste in music to your sense of style Because a venn diagram without differences is a circle And I’d rather go the extra five-thousand two-hundred and eighty feet To be close to you Than to already understand most of you By understanding myself Dear Perfect Girl, There are dimes that will do anything for a nickel And nickels out making dimes But I want your two cents And though I may laugh at it I take it to heart sometimes Because like a game of monopoly I don’t want to find myself back at the start And I don’t really watch chick flicks But I saw 500 Days of Summer And you’re my Autumn To which I’ll be sprung for in the winter I wear no mask for you Because I’ve divulged my past to you For you are presently in my future And though you may be a feminist I’ll try and be a perfect suitor Dear Perfect Girl, You say you’re OCD about some things But it’s your imperfections that are great for me And though I’m not sure I’ve met you yet I dare you to wait for me Because every day I improve myself In preparation for thee And a relationship you won’t forget I’ll wear knee pads and a helmet For when the day comes that I’m head over heels I’ll be able to get up in time to catch you When you fall in love Disney taught me to wish on the stars above And I’ve wished on every star Thrown a penny in every fountain And spent every 11:11 Wishing for you Perfect Girl

Dear Perfect Girl
Dear Perfect Girl, Grounded in the real world Taking care of herself like you’re rooted in a material one Your eyes and smile never cease to amaze But it’s your ambitions that set my heart ablaze Your laugh puts a smile on my face That seems to erase and replace The negative and repetitive If only for a second I love our similarities But our differences make it worthwile From your taste in music to your sense of style Because a venn diagram without differences is a circle And I’d rather go the extra five-thousand two-hundred and eighty feet To be close to you Than to already understand most of you By understanding myself Dear Perfect Girl, There are dimes that will do anything for a nickel And nickels out making dimes But I want your two cents And though I may laugh at it I take it to heart sometimes Because like a game of monopoly I don’t want to find myself back at the start And I don’t really watch chick flicks But I saw 500 Days of Summer And you’re my Autumn To which I’ll be sprung for in the winter I wear no mask for you Because I’ve divulged my past to you For you are presently in my future And though you may be a feminist I’ll try and be a perfect suitor Dear Perfect Girl, You say you’re OCD about some things But it’s your imperfections that are great for me And though I’m not sure I’ve met you yet I dare you to wait for me Because every day I improve myself In preparation for thee And a relationship you won’t forget I’ll wear knee pads and a helmet For when the day comes that I’m head over heels I’ll be able to get up in time to catch you When you fall in love Disney taught me to wish on the stars above And I’ve wished on every star Thrown a penny in every fountain And spent every 11:11 Wishing for you Perfect Girl
