This is Us

I never asked for perfect,

though the world said I should wait,

for a flawless kind of love

with no cracks, no mistakes.

But then you came along,

with your scars and your truth,

And I found something real,

something rare inside of you.

You’re not perfect,

and neither am I,

but when we’re together

the broken learns to fly.

Not perfect, but ours,

this love is alive,

through the darkness and fire,

we always survive.

I don’t need perfection,

just your hand in mine,

’Cause the most beautiful story

is the one we write in time.

You get quiet when you’re hurting,

you laugh too loud sometimes,

but your flaws are the reasons

I’m glad that you’re mine.

Love was never meant to be

smooth and without scars,

It’s the storm and the shelter,

it’s the healing of hearts.

You’re not perfect,

and neither am I,

but when we’re together

we touch the sky.

Not perfect, but ours,

this love is alive,

through the darkness and fire,

we always survive.

I don’t need perfection,

just your hand in mine,

’Cause the most beautiful story

is the one we write in time.

So let the world keep chasing

a dream that doesn’t last,

We’ll hold on to the real

no need for perfect glass.

Your scars, my scars,

they’ve brought us here today,

And I’d choose this imperfect love

over perfect any day.

Not perfect, but ours,

this love is alive,

through the darkness and fire,

we always survive.

I don’t need perfection,

just your hand in mine,

’Cause the most beautiful story

is the one we write in time.
