Perfect Lovers Lyrics by Ray Parker Jr.

After Dark

1987

You don't have to tell me
I can see it in your eyes
So it just won't do
No good for you to lie
All that time between us
Never really have and end
When I see you now
The feeling start again
[Chorus:]
We're old enough
And wise enough
Putting it all together
Making it last forever
So for one more time
Love's on the line
Doesn't get any better
There's no such thing
As perfect lovers
Tried our independеnce
Slept in separatе beds alone
But it all comes back
To what I've always known
Everyone's got problems
That's a thing I'm certain of
But you hold on tight
And still believe in love
[Chorus:]
We're old enough
And wise enough
Putting it all together
Making it last forever
Oh my darling
Don't give up on us now
If we hold on
Love's gonna come
And wash away the pain we had somehow
[Chorus:]
We're old enough
And wise enough
Putting it all together
Making it last forever
I get into you
Girl you get into me
And we'll have fun so much fun
But wait a minute
Just 'cause we're good in bed baby
Don't mean we're perfect lovers
