Music Monday- One Day Late

I once got into an argument with someone about my definition of perfect. He believed giving out "perfect" roses was the best thing he could do to impress girls. "Perfect" roses have no thorns. I told him that a thornless rose was not perfect- it lacked character, risk, and strength.  Not to mention- they are scientifically altered and fake.

He told me I was afraid of perfection.

But I don't think I am afraid of perfection- I just believe that the only real perfection is the amazing things outweighing the negatives things. I love roses because they are so beautiful, I don't notice the thorns. True love sees so many good things, it doesn't notice the bad ones.

I heard this song on the way home from my church group tonight, and I was feeling so good! I go to group and realize all the good things about myself, and I feel like my flaws don't really matter. So, here is my song for the night- dedicated to my perfect friends!

Perfect- by Sara Evans

If you don't take me to Paris
On a lover's getaway
It's all right, it's all right
If I'd rather wear your t-shirt
Than a sexy negligee
It's all right, it's all right
Every dinner doesn't have to be candlelit
It's kinda nice to know that it doesn't have to be

Perfect
Baby every little piece
Of the puzzle doesn't always fit
Perfectly
Love can be rough around the edges
tattered at the seams
But honey if it's good enough for you
It's good enough for me

If your mother doesn't like
The way I treat her baby boy
It's all right, it's all right
If in every wedding picture
My daddy looks annoyed
It's all right, it's all right
Don't you know that all the fairy tales tell a lie
Real love and real life doesn't have to be

Perfect
Baby every little piece
Of the puzzle doesn't always fit
Perfectly
Love can be rough around the edges
tattered at the seams
But honey if it's good enough for you
It's good enough for me

You don't mind if I show up late for everything
And when you lose your cool it's kinda cute to me
Ain't it nice to know that we don't have to be

Perfect
Baby every little piece
Of the puzzle doesn't always fit
Perfectly
Love can be rough around the edges
tattered at the seams
But honey if it's good enough for you
It's good enough for me

It's good enough for me (perfect)
Yeah good enough for me (perfect)
Good enough for me (perfect)
