Perfect Excuse

I wouldn't come alone

I took my memories along

If there's something that i've learned

You can't deny the way

The past dictates each dawn

It's not that i'm afraid

God knows i've made my set of rounds

It's just the way you look tonight

That makes me lose the plot

What's really goin' down

Too hot to handle

Too hard to lose

Fallin' in love with you

Is the perfect excuse

You make me feel at ease

But i know the final show

If there's something that i've learned

It's better to have left

Before you have to go

It's not that i'm afraid

God knows i've made my set of rounds

You got that twinkle in your eye

That makes me lose my grip

What's really goin' down

Too hot to handle

Too hard to lose

Fallin' in love with you

Is the perfect excuse

Too many heartbeats

Hidin' the truth

Fallin' in love with you

Is the perfect excuse
