A classic rock song. This is a fore-long love song about a person looking for the perfect words to say to their love interest buy having a difficult time finding them.
I was in a songwriting slump for several months when this song came to me. It headed me down the road again.

Perfect Words
1. I'm lookin' for the perfect words
To show you how I feel
They're hidden in my inner self
So truthful and so real
I'm searchin' for that turn of phrase
That sets your world on fire
Words of meaning, words of praise
Something to inspire
(chorus)
To Make you laugh, to make you cry
To make you wonder why
To make you smile, to make you frown
To lift you when your down
Oooo.... Perfect words, nowhere to be found
Oooo.... Perfect words, spoken without a sound
2. If I could just write them down
Or sing them to a song
I should learn to pour them out
Be it right or wrong
Just that one simple line
That opens up your eyes
But I stand there frozen in time
No matter how I try
(chorus)
To Make you laugh, to make you cry
To make you wonder why
To make you smile, to make you frown
To lift you when your down
Oooo.... Perfect words, nowhere to be found
Oooo.... Perfect words, spoken without a sound
