A PERFECT FAMILY
A perfect family...
That's what some wish for I'm sure.
But in my mind...
... I'll settle for one that's mature.
A perfect family...
That's how some truly measure success.
But truth be known...
Behind each mask is found a mess.
A perfect family...
No, just people who love and forgive.
And that to me...
Is how our family has chosen to live.
A perfect family...
That's what some pretend to be.
But as the song says...
Our's is close enough to perfect for me.
