Perfect World
Freddy Curci Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In a perfect world
It would never end like this
There'd be something
We could do

In a perfect world
Lovers wake up with a kiss
And their wishes all come true

But here we are
I thought you belonged to me
It seemed like the
Perfect arrangement
Ain't it funny when you find
How wrong you can be cause

Oh, this ain't no perfect world
I've got my problems
No, this ain't no perfect world
You've got your problems, too
Now what do we do

In a perfect world
I'd have been the boy you need
I'd have been somebody else

In a perfect world
You'd have been the girl for me
Yeah, you could have
Been yourself

You see, we're dying for love
But we're afraid to drop our guard
We're lost in a world gone crazy
Where the men won't grow up
And the women get so hard

Oh, this ain't no perfect world
And I've got my problems
No, this ain't no perfect world
Cause you've got your problems too
Now what do we do

I don't know
If we wind up friends
I don't know
If we wind up strangers

Cause I never had to
Walk away from anybody
I wanted as much
As I wanted you

Oh, this ain't no perfect world
Cause I've got my problems
Oh, this ain't no perfect world
Cause you've got your problems too

Oh, this ain't no perfect world
Oh, no, no
Oh, this ain't no perfect world

You got your problems




I got mine
We're dying for love....

Overall Meaning

The song "Perfect World" by Freddy Curci highlights the disparity between what we hope for and expect from our relationships and what reality often presents us. Curci sings about how things fall apart in the face of adversities, and how relationships are difficult and complicated even in a so-called perfect world. He points out how lovers are supposed to wake up with a kiss in a perfect world, and their wishes will come true, but in the real world, things are complicated, and problems arise.


The song goes on to highlight how individuals in a relationship need to drop their guards and be vulnerable to love, but the world can be so crazy that men refuse to grow up and women become too hard. Curci emphasizes that despite the efforts to keep a relationship, it can still fall apart, and we do not know how it will all end. The song's melancholic mood underscores the reality that relationships are not always what we want them to be or how we expect them to turn out, and sometimes we must face that reality abruptly.
