The Perfect Conversation

And in the perfect conversation you're standin' at the station
You're beggin' me, "Please don't go"
You say, "The only thing that matters in this world
Is that we need each other so"

In the perfect conversation without any hesitation
I tell you I was wrong
An' I say, "Girl, you know sometimes my faith is weak
And my pride is much too strong"

In this perfect conversation, here in my imagination
Somehow I know just when to say what's right
And I know just what I'm losin'
Before this train I'm on, starts movin'
And I'm runnin' through the door to hold you tight

Oh, the perfect conversation always ends
Before we say goodbye

And all that I can hear now, so loud and so clear now
Are the words I could not seem to find
And everything I didn't say keeps comin' back
One mile at a time

In this perfect conversation, here in my imagination
Somehow I know just when to say what's right
And I know I'll never leave you
'Cause I know how much I need you
And I tell you that I love you just in time

Oh, the perfect conversation always ends
Before we say goodbye
Oh, the perfect conversation always ends
Before we say goodbye
