Kansas - Perfect Lover Lyrics






It's in your head, they're telling you it's in your head
It's a figment of your imagination
It isn't there, they're telling you it isn't there
You're a victim of your infatuation
What do I think that it is I see? I keep asking myself
Nothing like this has ever happened to me...

There's a perfect lover running through my head
There's a perfect lover; I can see her in my head
Perfect lover. Lover

They keep telling you - they keep telling you, it's just a fascination
Why don't they listen - no one listens to what I am sayin"!
And everyone tells you she just isn't there, that it just couldn't be
If only they knew how real she is to me...

There's a perfect lover running through my head
There's a perfect lover; I can see her in my head
There's a perfect lover running through my head

There's a perfect lover; I can see her in my head

Sometimes I hear the cry, (I hear it crying out)
Your voice from deep inside, (inside, inside, inside...)
They're stealing you from me...
Ever be...

I'm not looking through the eyes of a desperate stranger
What I envision is so real, I don't want to change her
And sometimes I feel like she's standing right there
Like I could reach out and touch her
Only I know how real she is to me...

There's a perfect lover running through my head
There's a perfect lover; I can see you in my head
There's a perfect lover running through my head
Perfect lover. Lover
