Perfect Love
by Alathea

Album: My Roots Grow Deeper

It's not the kind of ache that settles
You're the kind of love that burns
Been through the fire and I came out better
Better for all that I have learned

It's not the drum that you'll hear beating
It's just my heart when you are near
I used to wear it right on my sleeve
But I cover it up now
I cover it up

Like the water fills the sea
You're a part of me
You don't love me
Like you should love me
We both know what goes on in here
Your perfect love it comes and drives out my fear
Perfect love

There are things that won't escape me
Truth I can't forget
Been to the river and I came back brave
Brave for the freedom that you gave

It's not the eagle you'll see soaring
It's just my soul that you've uncaged
My home used to be behind steel bars
Now I fly in the open air and under the stars
I fly in the open air and under the stars

Like the water fills the sea
You're a part of me
You don't love me
Like you should love me
We both know what goes on in here
Your perfect love it comes and drives out my fear
Your perfect love it comes and drives out my fear
Perfect love

It's not the horses running wild
It's freedom in my soul, there's freedom in my soul

Like the water fills the sea
You're a part of me
You don't love me
Like you should love me
We both know what goes on
Still you stay right here
Like the water fills the sea
You're a part of me
You don't love me
Like you should love me
I know what goes on in here
Your perfect love it comes and drives out my fear
Perfect love it comes and drives out my fear
Perfect love
