Perfect
Tish Gatan Lyrics

1]
I found a man
Who got me without trying
He was weak, and strong, at the same time
Constant nights we just talked and talked
Innocent moments he made me smile

Under The Stars
Find myself staring
Wish we never had to say goodbye

Oh how I wish, you, knew
I never wanna not talk you
Does your heart skip a beat
Every time our eyes meet
I'm secretly happier with you
But I know you're with someone new
Oh how I wish you knew
Oh you were Perfect for me

In my head, you're holding my hand
But in reality, you're holding hers

Making you laugh
In my own little ways
I had hopes but it doesn't matter anyway

Oh how I wish, you, knew
I never wanna not talk you
Does your heart skip a beat
Every time our eyes meet
I'm secretly happier with you
But I know you're with someone new
Oh how I wish you knew
Oh you were Perfect for me

Maybe in another life
I would get a chance of love
A kinda love that would last
A kinda love that you'd give

Oh how I wish, you, knew
I never wanna not talk you
Does your heart skip a beat
Every time our eyes meet
I'm secretly happier with you
But I know you're with someone new




Oh how I wish you knew
Oh you were Perfect for me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tish Gatan's song "Perfect" tell a story of unrequited love. The singer has found a man who has stolen her heart without even trying, with a mix of weakness and strength that drew her to him. They would spend their nights talking, and his innocent gestures would make her smile. But as she gazes up at the stars, she is filled with a sense of longing, wishing that they never had to say goodbye. She secretly wishes that he knew how she felt, how her heart skips a beat whenever she meets his gaze, and how happy she is when she is with him. But reality sets in, and she realizes that he is with someone else. The lyrics are filled with the regret of a love unfulfilled, wondering what could have been if only things were different.


The song is beautifully crafted, with Tish Gatan's voice touching the heartstrings of the listener. The music is gentle and evocative, perfectly matching the bittersweet lyrics. The song highlights the pain of an unreciprocated love which can be so severe that one would wish that reality was different. It captures the almost unbearable longing for what could have been if only things had gone a different way. It is both a celebration of love and a lament for love lost.
