    Never Perfect Enough
    I'm sorry I can't be perfect,
    Not the way you want me to be,
    I'm not that way,
    Not perfect enough for you,
    Not ever perfect enough for anybody

    I'm only human,
    I can't be perfect,
    So why even try,
    Can't you get it and accept it,
    I'm sorry I can't be perfect,
    No matter how much I try,
    I'm never good enough for you

    The old me is dead and gone,
    And I can't be perfect anymore,
    I'm sorry I can't be perfect,
    At least not the way you want me to be,
    Never been perfect enough for you,
    Never perfect enough for anybody

    And now I'm not sorry I was never perect enough,
    Because I'm perfect to myself,
    But I'll never be perfect enough for you
