Major kudos to Andy Frame (The Mosaics) and Rod Ferguson (Ramrod),
for their great work on this song. I can't thank them enough!
I apologize for the length of this song (8+ min), but it's a "big" production - and actually cut down from almost 11 min! Thanks for listening!
Lyrics
----- Verse 1-----
Where in the world can I find the Perfect Girl?
She sings and she sighs and she's oh so far away.
Never took a chance when I found myself in the world.
And it seemed sad at times and I soon found another way.
Oh, can't you see the blinding of it all?
My eyes grow tired, the tears they've sired run streaming down and gently fall.
I sing for the day when the night is dead,
And the song that I sing rushes through my head,
And the girl that appeared in a dream to me,
Is the perfect one for me ... for me.
----- Verse 2 -----
Where in a girl can I find the perfect world?
When they cry and they lie and they laugh and the drive insane.
Never had a chance when I cast before her a pearl.
And it's so hard to try when the tears and the fears remain.
Oh, can't you hear her laughing manic call?
My ears grow tired, the sound it dies like echoes in an open hall.
I sing for the day when the night is gone,
And the song that I sing rushes on and on,
The girl that appeared in a dream to me,
Is the perfect one for me ... for me.
----- Chorus (Choir) ------
Blinding night, manic call
Broken backs against the wall
Sunken eyes and sallowed dreams
And broken hearts and endless needs
But sun light beams like dewdrops fall
And frees the binding of it all
And shines upon the perfect world to be.
----- Verse 3 -----
Where in the world can I find the perfect girl?
She sings and she sighs and she's not so far away.
Now I'll take the chance to remove myself from the world.
And it seems that it's time and I'll soon find another way.
Oh, can she free the binding of it all?
To slip away like night to day and crumble like a broken wall.
I sing for the day when the night is dead,
And the song that I sing echos in my head,
And the girl that appeared in a dream to me,
Is she standing right in front of me?
