Testo The Only Perfect

She is a Polaroid
Myrtle beach for two months
She is a sun bleached umbrella
Who slept in the sand with you once
She is a light packer
A daiquiri and a damn good dancer
She's Grace Kelly with a sunburn
Who knows where she is now
The only perfect lover is the one
You never get to know
The one who never wilts in a vase
Just stays a grocery store rose
No one can walk on water
Like the memory of an almost
The only perfect lover is the one, the one, the one
You never get to know

You were younger then
Outrunning waves to show off
I swear I can hear your laugh
Mocking how the seagulls talked
And you took a bunch of pictures You've lost since then, but you don't forget her
Or that snippet that she showed you
Who knows who she is now

The only perfect lover is the one
You never get to know
The one who never wilts in a vase
Just stays a grocery store rose
No one can walk on water
Like the memory of an almost
The only perfect lover is the one, the one, the one
You never get to know

To know, to know, to know (To know, to know, to know)
To know, to know, to know (To know, to know, to know)
To know, to know, to know (To know, to know, to know)
To know, to know, to know (To know, to know, to know)

When you look at me
Do you see dishes in the sink?
Do you see couples therapy
And a long, long road?
When you look at me
Do you see a promise?
God forbid some what ifs
And a long, long road

The only perfect lover is the one
You never get to know
The one who never wilts in a vase
Just stays a grocery store rose
No one can walk on water
Like the memory of an almost
The only perfect lover is the one, the one, the one
You never get to know

To know, to know, to know (You never get to know)
To know, to know, to know (To know)
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
To know, to know, to know
