The leaves were falling
And you were mine
You called me Sara
A couple times
We spent December
With the TV and wine
And we were perfect, perfect
Heaven
And there were rumors
And there were lies
The holy rollers
They don’t ask why
Why I wore starlight
Why you would fly
Why it was perfect, perfect
Heaven, heaven
So call it youth
Or foolish pride
I hang my halo
I know I tried
And let them watch
With prying eyes
As we roll on
As we roll on
And it was long ago
And far away
I wish I knew then
What I knew today
That you’re an angel
What can I say
But it was perfect, perfect
Heaven, heaven
Perfect, perfect
So long ago so far away
Wish I knew then what I know today
We’re staring at the open road
But you never know and you never know
And when you go to set asail
I wish you know that I wish you will and I
never meant to say goodbye
But you’ll never know and you never know
So call it youth
Or foolish pride
I hang my halo
I know I tried
And let them watch
With starry eyes
As we roll on
As we roll on
