Perfect Story

Jack and Jill went up the hill, a bucket full of dreams
 When the morning came, they carved their names into the cherry tree
 But the hill was built on quicksand and it all came tumblin' down
 So they held onto the only thing they couldn't live without
 And here you are, the best of us
 With a bigger heart than the rest of us
 I'm so sorry
 I couldn't give you the perfect story
 A textbook happy ending
 Where nobody here gets hurt
 But don't you worry
 Your daddy and your mommy
 May be a little broken
 But not our love for you
 Oh, our love for you
 Can move the earth
 Ooh, ooh, ooh
 When London Bridge came falling down, I saw you through the flames
 And for a second I convinced myself it's better if I stay
 But what would you have thought of love if you had watched us burn
 Would you grow up and think a bridge on fire is what you deserve?
 And here you are, the best of us
 With a bigger heart than the rest of us
 I'm so sorry
 I couldn't give you the perfect story
 A textbook happy ending
 Where nobody here gets hurt
 But don't you worry
 Your daddy and your mommy
 May be a little broken
 But not our love for you
 Oh, our love for you
 Can move the earth
 Oh, the earth
 And I never had to wonder
 I don't regret what we've been through
 Don't have to look no further
 The answer's here, it's you
