Perfect in My Mind
[Verse 1]
As a young man, I was dreamin'
Of what someday might come
A life filled with music
To travel all around
Many stages, many cities
Oh, a vision, perfect in my mind, oh
Writin' songs by the keyboard
Tryna find the words to sing
Prayin' for doors to open
But keen on rememberin'
All the dreams that I was dreamin'
Oh, a vision, perfect in my mind
[Chorus]
To be in that moment
Together with the crowd
To be free in that moment
To sing the words out loud
In a place where times are changin'
And everything is focused on right now
To be in that moment
When the music touches soul
To be free in that moment
Where the music makes you whole
That's the dream that I was dreamin'
I picture it, perfect in my mind
Perfect in my mind
[Verse 2]
Now I am older
Lookin' back on what I've done
Everything I worked for
Everything I overcome
The dreams that I believed in
How I pictured them, perfect in my mind, oh
A life filled with music
A life filled with joy
Seen more than I expected
More than I was hopin' for
Seen dream become reality
As I pictured it, perfect in my mind
[Chorus]
To be in that moment
Together with the crowd
To be free in that moment
To sing the words out loud
In a place where times are changin'
And everything is focused on right now
To be in that moment
When the music touches soul
To be free in that moment
Where the music makes you whole
That's the dream that I was dreamin'
And I pictured it, perfect in my mind
Perfect in my mind
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
To be in that moment
Together with the crowd
To be free in that moment
To sing the words out loud
In a place where times are changin'
And everything is focused on right now
To be in that moment
When the music touches soul
To be free in that moment
Where the music makes you whole
That's the dream that I was dreamin'
And I pictured it, perfect in my mind
Perfect in my
Perfect in my
Perfect in my mind
