Perfect World
Simple Plan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never could have seen this coming
It seems like my world's falling apart
Why is everything so hard?
I don't think that I can deal
With the things you said
It just won't go away
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
I used to think that I was strong
Until the day it all went wrong
I think I need a miracle to make it through
I wish that I could bring you back
I wish that I could turn back time
'Cause I can't let go
I just can't find my way
Without you I just can't find my way
I don't know what I should do now
I don't know where I should go
I'm still here waiting for you
I'm lost when you're not around
I need to hold on to you
I just can't let you go
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I can just pick up the pieces
But to you this means nothing
Nothing at all
You feel nothing
Nothing at all
Nothing at all

I never could have seen this far
I didn't expect this outcome
I never could have seen this coming
I never expected this to happen
It seems like my world's falling apart
Everything is going wrong for me
Why is everything so hard?
I don't understand why things are so difficult
I don't think that I can deal
I don't think I'm strong enough to handle this
With the things you said
Your words have hurt me badly
It just won't go away
I can't stop thinking about it
In a perfect world
In a world without pain and sadness
This could never happen
Things like this would never occur
You'd still be here
You would still be alive
And it makes no sense
This situation is senseless
I can just pick up the pieces
I can try to move on
But to you this means nothing
You wouldn't care about this
Nothing at all
You feel nothing
I used to think that I was strong
I thought I could handle anything
Until the day it all went wrong
Until this tragedy happened
I think I need a miracle to make it through
I need something extraordinary to cope with this
I wish that I could bring you back
I wish you were here with me
I wish that I could turn back time
I wish I could go back in time and change things
'Cause I can't let go
I can't move on from this
I just can't find my way
I don't know how to live without you
Without you I just can't find my way
You were my guidance
I don't know what I should do now
I am unsure of my next steps
I don't know where I should go
I feel lost without you
I'm still here waiting for you
I'm waiting for you to come back
I'm lost when you're not around
I feel lost without your presence
I need to hold on to you
I need you to be here with me
I just can't let you go
I can't bear to lose you

Perfect World- Simple Plan
I never could've seen this far
I never could've see this coming
It seems like my world's falling apart
Yeah
Why is everything so hard
I don't think that I can deal
With the things you said
It just won't go away
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I could just pick up the pieces
But to you
This means nothing
Nothing at all
I used to think that I was strong
Until the day it all went wrong
I think I need a miracle to
Make it through
Yeah
I wish that I could bring you back
I wish that I could turn back time
'Cause I can't let go
I just can't find
My way
Without you
I just
Can't find
My way
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I could just pick up the pieces
But to you
This means nothing
Nothing at all
I don't know what I should do now
I don't know where I should go
I'm still here waiting for you
I'm lost when you're not around
I need to hold onto you
I
Just
Can't let you go
Yeah
Yeah
In a perfect world
This could never happen
In a perfect world
You'd still be here
And it makes no sense
I could just pick up the pieces
But to you
This means nothing
Nothing at all
You feel nothing
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
