solomon burke – perfect song lyrics
i wish there’d be a song that would
stop the hunger and pain
stop the poverty and strain
for once and for all time
could there be a song that would
make the soldiers drop their guns
make the sun shine for the ones
hurt by violence and crime
i wish there’d be a song that would
soothe the souls of those who suffer
from their lives just getting tougher
until all hatred’s gone astray
and if there’d be a song that could
fertilize the desert
neutralize all hazard
i would write one right away
once i wrote it we would sing it
and it would be a perfect song
perfect verses
perfect chorus
but i’m afraid i’d get it slightly wrong
i wish there’d be a song that would
perform god’s miracles
make the lame stand up and walk
give sight back to the blind
and if there’d be a song that could
bring love and peace on earth
tear down every crooked church
i’d write a dozen of the kind
once i wrote it we would sing it
and it would be a perfect song
perfect verses
perfect chorus
but i’m afraid i’d get it slightly wrong
once i wrote it we could sing it
and it would be a perfect song
perfect verses
perfect chorus
but i’m afraid i’d get it slightly wrong
perfect verses
perfect chorus
but i’m afraid it can’t be done
perfect song
