Perfection



this world so beautiful
the vegetation so fine
I see all this perfection
and it's all in my mind

the shy at night
is a wonderful sight
for the stars are out
and shine so bright

the winds blow cool
the waters run free
this is all in my mind
this is my reality

this world so beautiful
the vegetation so fine
I see all this perfection
and it's you in my mind
