Dalam simfoni yang memukau oleh The Smashing Pumpkins, lagu "Perfect" mengungkapkan kisah cinta yang kini telah menjadi kenangan. Liriknya yang puitis dan penuh introspeksi menelusuri transformasi sebuah hubungan yang dulunya penuh gairah menjadi sesuatu yang lebih tenang dan asing. Lagu ini menyentuh tema tentang persahabatan yang bertahan lama, penyesalan, dan janji untuk menjadi "sempurna" sebagai orang asing yang terhubung oleh masa lalu yang tak terlupakan.
Perfect Lyrics
The Smashing Pumpkins
I know we're just like old friends
We just can't pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel that something has been lost
But please you know you're just like me
Next time I promise we'll be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind
So far I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was...
Angel, you know it's not the end
We'll always be good friends
The letters have been sent on
So please, you always were so free
You'll see, I promise we'll be
Perfect
Perfect strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we sleep
Perfect
You know this has to be
We always we're so free
We promised that we'd be
Perfect
We just can't pretend
That lovers make amends
We are reasons so unreal
We can't help but feel that something has been lost
But please you know you're just like me
Next time I promise we'll be
Perfect
Perfect
Perfect strangers down the line
Lovers out of time
Memories unwind
So far I still know who you are
But now I wonder who I was...
Angel, you know it's not the end
We'll always be good friends
The letters have been sent on
So please, you always were so free
You'll see, I promise we'll be
Perfect
Perfect strangers when we meet
Strangers on the street
Lovers while we sleep
Perfect
You know this has to be
We always we're so free
We promised that we'd be
Perfect
