It Isn’t Perfect But It Might Be

La la la la, la la la la la
La la la la, la la la la la

There’s a lot of ground to cover
One foot and then the other
On my way, my way
To something new

A few false starts, can you forgive this
Cautious heart, and just bare with it
While it does
What I thought it couldn’t do

I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it’s a story now, just a story now
Is the kind of thing that you’d say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn’t perfect, but it might be

La la la la, la la la la la
La la la la, la la la la la

You deep your toe and then you paddle
All before you swim the Chanel
Thought I’d never make it but
I might

I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it’s a story now, just a story now
Is the kind of thing that you’d say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn’t perfect, but it might be

La la la la, la la la la la
La la la la, la la la la la

Treading lightly, thinking slightly
It just might be, it just might be
Treading lightly, thinking slightly
It just might be, it just might be

I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it’s a story now, just a story now
Is the kind of thing that you’d say
If there’s no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn’t perfect, but it might be, yeah

La la la la, la la la la la
La la la la, la la la la la

Like it might be, like it might be
Might be, might be, might be, might be
