imperfect

His mom said he was a bad kid Once she told him not to play with matches Next thing she knew, he locked himself in his room He almost burned the whole house into ashes Sixteen with a chip on his shoulder He loved so deep that he'd never stay sober He stole the car for the thrill He swallowed another pill He told himself he would change when he's older We met when the flowers were in full bloom I think I might just love you He looked at me, smiled with his teeth, and said I'm not your Prince Charming But I'll make you believe in love And I knew it from the first kiss, first kiss That the heartbreak would be worth it, worth it He never learned how to trust I'm ready to self-destruct Please, baby, make it worth it, worth it Teach me all about imperfect love Teach me all about imperfect We first met when I was 20 in sheltered One look at him and every part of me melted Next thing I knew he had me up in his room I didn't know what to do but I dealt with it We met when the flowers were in full bloom I think I might just love you He looked at me, smiled with his teeth and said I'm not your Prince Charming But I'll make you believe in love And I knew it from the first kiss, first kiss That the heartbreak would be worth it, worth it He never learned how to trust I'm ready to self-destruct Please, baby, make it worth it, worth it Teach me all about imperfect love Teach me all about Oh no, I'm yours now and forevermore So sad, but it's true Nothing seems to break this dream come true Oh no, he's mine until the end of time Baby, I promise you These next words I say to you are true These next words I say to you are true I'll be your princess, my love One touch and you'll be undone And he knew it from the first kiss, first kiss That my love would make it worth it, worth it His heart was covered in rust With me, he'll always entrust And he knew it from the first kiss, first kiss That our perfect wasn't perfect, perfect And we'll always have this perfect love
