Day 2: Perfection

A song written by Diane Warren and Desmond Child for the eponymous album Cher in 1987. And that husky voice in the beginning, yup, that's Bonnie Tyler!

Hush little baby, gotta be strong

'Cause in this world we are born to fight

Be the best prove them wrong

A winner's work is never done

Reach the top number one

Perfection…

Oh perfection

You drive me crazy with perfection

I've worn my pride as my protection

Perfection….oh!

I was taught to be tough

That the best that you can be ain't enough

Crack the whip, sacrifice

But I found out paradise had a price

I didn't know it then

But oh I know it now

You gotta work as hard at love

To make the love work out

You know this heart of mine

Had made some big mistakes

I guess that when it comes to love

I just don't know what it takes…

Chorus:

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Whoa…I've been driven by perfection

But nothin's perfect when love ain't right

Nothin's perfect when love ain't right

Gave it all played my part

I gave everything I had but my heart

Worked so hard made a name

But the loneliness inside stays the same

When love is here to today

And then it's gone today

You got a list of lovers looking like a resume'

You gotta take some time

To make it something real

I guess that when it comes to love

I just don't know how to feel

Chorus repeat

Oh perfection

You drive me crazy with perfection

I've worn my pride as my protection

I'm goin' crazy with perfection
