Lyrics k.d. lang – Perfect Word
Text:
The fire from your tongue is burning uncontrollably
Standing with your back to the wall
Striking back is bringing out the worst in me
I’m only human after all
I don’t need to win this fight
I just want to make it right
Why’s it always go unheard
That perfect word
These heated exchanges are consuming me
And bringing my heart down to its knees
This conversation’s complications
Baby, we just love to disagree
I don’t need to win the fight
I just want to make it right
Why’s it always go unheard
That perfect word
From the fire to the flame
From the ashes love remains
No I don’t need to win the fight
I just want to make it right
Why’s it always go unheard
That perfect word
