Perfect World
Laura Izibor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That makes me love you
Clothes that you're wearing
Don't mean nothing
Money in your pocket
Can't buy me
And your love
I thought it was a fear
I would've found you long ago
But I'm willing and ready
To give you my all love don't you know
Oh what a feeling
Something real
Baby don't you know that you're all I need
Oh
Oh
Hey
It's not what you do
That makes me want you
If you're happy
I am too
Not the people that you're with cause I'm with you
Baby don't you know, love shines through
Oh, oh
In a perfect world baby
I would've found you long ago
But I'm willing and ready
To give you all my love don't you know
Oh what a feeling
Something real
Baby don't you know that you're all I need
Oh
Oh
Feels like I've been in a slumber
Now I've woken
Which feels like I've never said a word
Now I've spoken
Cause baby you set me free
In a perfect world baby
I would've found you long ago
But I'm willing and ready
To give you all my love don't you know
Oh what a feeling
Something real
Baby don't you know that you're all I need
In a perfect world baby
I would've found you long ago
But I'm willing and ready
I'm ready
If i would have found you
oh baby
i said,
in a perfect world
i would have found you
The lyrics of Laura Izibor's "Perfect World" is a love song that talks about how love is not based on material things or what one does, but rather on their essence. The singer talks about how money in one's pocket cannot buy love, and the clothes that one wears are not essential to love. The person's love is what matters ultimately. In a perfect world, the singer would have found love earlier, but now she is ready and willing to give her all to this person. The love is something real, and the singer need not look any further.
The second verse talks about how the person's happiness is what makes the singer happy. The people the person is with are not significant, as the singer is with them. The love shines through, and that is what matters. The chorus repeats how the singer would have found love earlier in a perfect world, but now she is ready and willing to give her all to this person. It talks about how the love is something real and that the person is all that the singer needs. The bridge talks about how the singer feels awakened and free because of the person.
Line by Line Meaning
It's not what you have
The possessions you own do not affect my love for you
That makes me love you
My love for you is not based on material things
Clothes that you're wearing
Your clothing is irrelevant to me
Don't mean nothing
It holds no importance or value to me
Money in your pocket
The amount of money you possess is not a factor in my love
Can't buy me
You cannot buy my love with money
And your love
I used to fear your love
I thought it was a fear
I initially thought that love was scary and intimidating
In a perfect world baby
If everything was ideal, I would have found you much earlier
I would've found you long ago
I wish I had found you earlier in life
But I'm willing and ready
I am open and eager to loving you now
To give you my all love don't you know
I'm ready to give you all my heart, don't you realize?
Oh what a feeling
It is an amazing feeling
Something real
This love is genuine and authentic
Baby don't you know that you're all I need
You are everything to me, don't you recognize it?
It's not what you do
Your actions do not define my desire for you
That makes me want you
I want you simply because of who you are
If you're happy
If you are content and happy with me
I am too
Then I am happy too
Not the people that you're with cause I'm with you
I'm not concerned with anyone else because I'm with you
Baby don't you know, love shines through
Love always prevails and overpowers other things
Feels like I've been in a slumber
It feels like I've been asleep all this time
Now I've woken
But now I'm finally awake and aware
Which feels like I've never said a word
It feels like I haven't expressed how I feel before
Now I've spoken
But now I'm speaking up about how I feel
Cause baby you set me free
Because of you, I feel liberated and free
If i would have found you
If only I had found you earlier
oh baby
Oh darling
i said,
I previously mentioned,
in a perfect world
If everything was ideal and perfect
i would have found you
I wish I had found you earlier
