Dani B - (Im)perfect Lyrics

That night you broke my heart for the second time
Next morning, over again, was sobbing naked in bed
You tried to hug and kiss me goodbye
Just wanted me as a friend
I knew that was the end
No matter how much it hurts, I just can't pretend

That what you told me didn't mess with my head
Can't eat without feeling some dread
Self-image hanging on by a thread
Did you want me, or the "perfect" version you envisioned?
Did you want me, or the "perfect" version you envisioned?

We weren't perfect, but it felt so me
Loving you was blinding, couldn't think clearly
But looking back now, it's plain to see
Who are you to tell me how I should be?

Say don't get those pants and I'd meet your demands
Don't cut your hair, find something different to wear
And then you dare to tell me it's unfair
That I don't like it when you overshare

Trip to New York but all we'd do is argue
Hated when you'd compare me to him, swore it wasn't true
Forgetting I'm a girl 'cuz that was all you knew
Wanted other people, was I not enough for you? (ohh enough for you, enough for you)
No, I can't pretend

That what you told me didn't mess with my head
Can't eat without feeling some dread
Self-image hanging on by a thread
Did you want me, or the "perfect" version you envisioned?
Did you want me, or the "perfect" version you envisioned?

What you told me really messed with my head (you were my whole life)
Can't eat without feeling some dread (thought you'd be my wife)
Self-image hanging on by a thread (know it's for the best)
Did you want me, or the "perfect" version you envisioned? (but my heart can't give it a rest)
The "perfect" version you envisioned (nobody's perfect, but love makes it worth it)
Am I not what you envisioned?
