Lyrics

Verse 1
I know you stand up and care for me treat me like a friend and love me to the end
Yes you’re lovely an I know it makes no sense he’s rough and rude and treats me like a fool
But I can change him and make him understand that’s what I need to do and he needs it to
In to the perfect as I see it but you’re already perfect you’re no project for me

Chorus
Its an endeavour of the heart this fix I need Its not of the head and sometimes you bleed this fix I need
The urge to restore and perfect is to strong to depart To take the pain and to endure and finish my work of art

Verse 2
I know he bags me and slaps me around Mom and Dad can’t see it but that’s just a part of it
I feel your charming glow you make it easy to stay but you don’t need fixing so what would I say
He’s like a tattoo it’s a lifetime commitment painful from the start in the end it just a scar
To him I’m like an old car one you can count on to start and if you bang it it’s just a mark

Bridge
So I have to leave the safety of your arms and get back to my chore
I know it’s hard for you to grasp but for me it’s the chosen path
To change him and mould him to the perfect man to me
The cost is not considered my happiness is on loan you see
I know you will always be the best no matter how near or far
But the fix I need is a man who treats me like his beaten old car

Repeat Verse 1
I know you stand up and care for me treat me like a friend and love me to the end
Yes you’re lovely an I know it makes no sense he’s rough and rude and treats me like a fool
But I can change him and make him understand that’s what I need to do and he needs it to
In to the perfect as I see it but you’re already perfect you’re no project for me

Chorus
Its an endeavour of the heart this fix I need Its not of the head and sometimes you bleed this fix I need
The urge to restore and perfect is to strong to depart To take the pain and to endure and finish my work of art

Outro
To take the pain and to endure and finish my work of art
