about

This song came in late in the game, and we loved it so much we made it the title track. A sweet catchy chorus that brings a certain lightness to the concept of 'a perfect world'.

lyrics

A WOMAN STOPS AND LISTENS TO THE SOUND
UNDER A TREE, A MAN SINGS HIS SONG
SHE SAYS YOU MAY NOT KNOW IT BUT WE'RE FRIENDS
HE SMILES, HE SAYS IT'S SO NICE TO MEET YOU AGAIN

HER IMAGINATION FILLS THE SKY
HE SINGS A SONG THAT BRINGS TEARS TO HER EYES
SHE WONDERS COULD THIS ALL BE IN MY HEAD
HE SAYS HANG ON GIRL, CAUSE HERE WE GO AGAIN

CH
IN A PERFECT WORLD . A PERFECT DAY
WE WOULD NOT MAKE THOSE MISTAKES ( AGAIN)
IN A PERFECT WORLD WE WOULD AWAKE
GIVE OUR HEADS A LITTLE SHAKE (AND SAY, LETS BE FRIENDS)

INA PERFECT WORLD A PERFECT DAY
ALL OUR TROUBLES WOULD MELT AWAY ( AND THEN)
WITH OUR POCKETS FULL OF HOLES
WE WOULD SLIP AWAY DOWN THE ROAD AND SING
LA LA, LA LA LA, LA LA , LA LA LA, LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

UNDER THE SUN THEY SOW THE WHEAT
ROADS TO NOWHERE ALWAYS LOOK SO SWEET
IF THEY WANT THEY CAN READ BETWEEN THE LINES
ON A CLEAR BLUE MORNING IF THEY LOOK THEY WILL FIND

ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD
EVERY STORY IS NOT TOLD
TOGETHERTHEY FALL UNDER A TREE
TOGETHER THEY SING IN PERFECT HARMONY

In the last few years the fire has been lit, and those songs are roaring into life. His unique style, rhythms and subject matter combine to create an exciting new and original voice in the Canadian folk music scene. ... more
