Close to perfect, close to perfect
I can't argue that you're close to perfect
And almost worth it, so I'll argue back
You're pretty dreaming, big achiever
And you always back up what they say, but you can't do
You always bring it back
They all tell me that you can let me down, no, no
They don't know the way I know you, no, no, they don't know
You kill everything you touch, but in that good way, oh
You don't wanna, but you never need to let them know
Now that's what I love about you (yeah), love about you, love about you
And there's nothing that I don't love about you (yeah), love about you
So tell me what you love about me, yeah
Tell me what you love about me, yeah
Tell me what you love about me, yeah
Tunnel vision, focused on it, oh you've always been
On your mission, first position and I always seem to be surprised
And taken back, by the fact, that you work so hard
Carry all this weight on your back
They all tell me that you can let me down, no, no
They don't know the way I know you, no, no, they don't know
You kill everything you touch but in that good way, oh
You don't wanna, but you never need to let them know
Now that's what I love about you (yeah), love about you, love about you
And there's nothing that I don't love about you (yeah), love about you
So tell me what you love about me, yeah
Tell me what you love about me, yeah
So tell me what you love about me, yeah
Recognition, a flawless precision
Handmade, handcrafted, all made for me
And I, I can never need anything more (tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
(Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
I don't need anything more
Now that's what I love about you (yeah), love about you, love about you
And there is nothing that I don't love about you (yeah), love about you
So tell me what you love about me, yeah
Tell me what you love about me, yeah
So tell me what you love about me, yeah
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
(Tell me ya) so tell me what you love about me (tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
(Tell me ya) so tell me what you love about me (tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
(Tell me ya) so tell me what you love about me (tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
(Tell me ya) so tell me what you love about me (tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
(Tell me ya) so tell me what you love about me (tell me, tell me, tell me ya)
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
Tell me ya, tell me, tell me, tell me ya
