Flowers in a Paper Bag

The engine light's on We don't give a care It shines on her hand in mine Like the lights in Times Square She's in tattered jeans And a Goodwill t-shirt We're richer than kings With an empty purse I will give you flowers in a paper bag I know it's not perfect, but it's all we have It's all we want All we need Oh this imperfect love Is perfect for me And through the cracked mirror I see the scars in her eyes But they still shine brighter Than all the stars in the sky And when the furnace breaks down In the winter-chilled storm I'll grab a blanket And inside we'll stay warm I will give you flowers in a paper bag I know it's not perfect, but it's all we have It's all we want All we need Oh this imperfect love Is perfect for me The mazes of wrinkles Don't lead us away And through the big glasses I still see her the same Things come and they go But time only stays Fifty years, now I know We grow stronger with age I will give you flowers in a paper bag I know it's not perfect, but it's all we have It's all we want All we need Oh this imperfect love Is perfect for me
