I picture myself with blissful ignorance
Everything I need here in my grasp
c roof over my head, some food to keep me fed
I want this kind of lifetime to last

The birds will sing just for me
The rivers will run as they please
Stories have their end, but my time it will lend
To dedicate my days to tranquility

c picture perfect story it will be
For me

I picture my body in your arms
The kind of love to last forever
But a hunter has its prey, and i feel it everyday
That maybe this love has been a risky endeavor

The sun will shine to tell me there's better
The moon will agree that I should go
Some things aren't meant to last, sometimes they belong in the past
cnd I think it's time that I should know

That a picture perfect story is one that has to grow

The day will turn to night, every darkness has its light
Things will change as quickly as a blink
Stories are born, people will die, beginnings have an end
cnd maybe I never thought to stop and think
That a perfect life isn't good for me, you have to change to know
cnd as I get older I realize, this is how my story will go

c picture perfect story is one that has to grow
