Ed Sheeran’s Enduring Love Song: Perfect Lyrics
Ed Sheeran pours his heart out in Perfect Lyrics a timeless love ballad dedicated to his wife, Cherry Seaborn (then his fiancée). Released as the fourth single from his 2017 album “divide,” the song became a global phenomenon.
In an interview with Music Choice, Sheeran revealed a playful competition with his own megahit, “Thinking Out Loud.” He admitted a desire to surpass its success, stating, “I think ‘Perfect’ is actually better… I wrote a lot of songs trying to beat it, and now I think I have.”
Thematically, “Perfect” evokes a similar sentimentality to “18,” a song he wrote for his friends in One Direction. Both songs celebrate enduring bonds and cherished memories.
The song’s popularity spawned several versions, including the “Perfect Duet” featuring Beyoncé and the “Perfect Symphony” with Andrea Bocelli. Both collaborations further solidified the song’s impact.
“Perfect” reached the pinnacle of the Billboard Hot 100 chart in December 2017, and its reign extended globally, topping charts in numerous countries. The song’s success cemented its place as a modern love song classic.
Ed Sheeran – Perfect Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I found a love for me
Oh, darlin’, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waitin’ for me
[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowin’ what it was
I will not give you up this time
But, darlin’, just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you’re holdin’ mine
[Chorus]
Baby, I’m dancin’ in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass while listenin’ to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, “Darlin’, you look perfect tonight”
[Verse 2]
Well, I found a woman stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that, someday, I’ll share her home
I found a love to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
[Pre-Chorus]
We are still kids, but we’re so in love
Fightin’ against all odds
I know we’ll be alright this time
Darlin’, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I’ll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
[Chorus]
Baby, I’m dancin’ in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass while listenin’ to our favourite song
When I saw you in that dress, lookin’ so beautiful
I don’t deserve this, darlin’, you look perfect tonight
[Bridge]
No, no, no
Mm, no, no
[Chorus]
Baby, I’m dancin’ in the dark with you between my arms
We’re barefoot on the grass, oh, listenin’ to our favourite song
I have faith in what I see, now I know I have met
An angel in person and she looks perfect
I don’t deserve this, you look perfect tonight
