Dean Lewis, Julia Michaels - In A Perfect World Lyrics

I'm so scared of falling
Always in and out, up and down
Too afraid to be open
I found myself in you
And it made me feel so fucking scared

'Cause, when I am open
All my past and all my pain
Floats up to the surface
You can even cut me down with a smile
It hurts so bad
So, I leave when it gets too good
Yeah-yeah
I leave when it gets too good

But in a perfect world, I am here with you
And I kiss you slow in a dim lit room
When you ask me if I love you, I say, "I do"
I'm not running from my problems
And I'm not running from you
And we're so damn happy
And I'm not confused
I'm not looking for an escape all
'Cause I'm scared I might lose you
(Ooh-ooh) in a perfect world

Yeah, at least you're self-aware
I'll give you some credit
But walking out on something perfect's really stupid
Yeah, Baby, I said it
You're so scared of regretting something
Before you can even regret it
And we could be great and it would be great
If you'd let it, oh

But you leave when it gets too good, yeah-yeah
You (I) leave when it gets too good

But in a perfect world, I am here with you
And I kiss you slow in a dim lit room
When you ask me if I love you, I say, "I do"
I'm not running from my problems
And I'm not running from you
And we're so damn happy
And I'm not confused
I'm not looking for an escape all
'Cause I'm scared I might lose you
(Ooh-ooh) in a perfect world

I leave when it gets too good
(When it gets too good, you always)
Leave when it gets too good

Oh, but in a perfect world, there's just us two
And I let myself get lost in you
When you ask me if I love you, I say, "I do"
I'm not running from my problems
And I'm not running from you
