Cher - Perfection

Hush little Baby, gotta be strong

'Cause in this world we are born to fight

Be the best, prove them wrong

A winner's work is never done, reach the top, number one

Oh, perfection

You drive me crazy with perfection

I've worn my pride as my protection

Perfection, ohh

I was taught to be tough

That the best that you can be ain't enough

Crack the whip, sacrifice

But I found out paradise had a price

I didn't know it then, but oh I know it now

You gotta work as hard as love to make the love work out

You know this heart of mine has made some big mistakes

I guess that when it comes to love, I just don't know what I takes

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Ohh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

Nothing's perfect when the love ain't right

Gave it all, played my part

I gave everything I had but my heart

Worked so hard, made a name

But the loneliness inside stays the same

When love is here today, and then it's gone today

You got a list of lovers lookin' like a resume

You gotta take some time to make it something real

I guess that when it comes to love, I just don't know how to feel

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Ohh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

Nothing's perfect when the love ain't right

Oh, perfection

You drive me crazy with perfection

I've worn my pride as my protection

I'm goin' crazy with perfection

Ohh, I didn't know it then, but oh I know it now

You gotta work as hard as love to make the love work out

You know this heart of mine has made some big mistakes

I guess that when it comes to love, I just don't know what I takes

I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Ohh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Ohh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

All my life I've been driven by perfection

Pushed it to the limit every day and night

Ohh, I've been driven by perfection

But nothing's perfect when love ain't right

All my life I've been driven by perfection
