Perfectly Clear lyrics

The man on TV says it's just another day

with all its picture postcard smiles.

The sun is shining and the clouds 

have blown away, (blown away)

perfect weather for denial.

I pretend that you're not so far away from me

and that soon you will be back here in my arms.

I am writing to say I am fine

and ask how you are.

Have I made myself perfectly clear?

I was wrong and I wish you were here.

Well, I've done a lot of thinking

and I know that you're the one 

that I've been prayin' for, 

been prayin' for.

Have I made myself perfectly clear? 

(Now I'm seein' things so clear).

I was wrong and I wish you were here. 

[?]

Everybody out here's smiling

and the sun is always shining,

but I'm all alone and wishing you were here.

Everyone here doesn't seem to have a care

(seem to have a care)

and if they do, it's hard to tell.

I know I said that I was making lots of friends,

(making lots of friends)

but I'm not doing all that well.

I've been calling you for days, 

I've got to talk to you

(got to talk to you).

Maybe you just need a little time.

You know where I am in California,

please drop me a line.

Have I made myself perfectly clear?

(Now I'm seein' things so clear).

I was wrong and I wish you were here.

[?]

Well, I've done a lot of thinking

(done a lot of thinking)

and I know that you're the one 

that I've been prayin' for,

the one that I've been prayin' for.

Have I made myself perfectly clear?

(Now I'm seein' things so clear).  

I was wrong and I wish you were here.

[?]

Everybody out here's smiling

(everybody out here's smiling)

and the sun is always shining,

(and the sun is always shining)

but I'm all alone and wishing you were here.

I wish you were here.

Have I made myself perfectly clear?

(I wanna make myself clear).

I was wrong and I wish you were here.

(God, I wish that you were here).

Well, I've done a lot of thinking

(I've done a lot of thinking)

and I know that you're the one 

that I've been prayin' for

(prayin' for).

Have I made myself perfectly clear?

(I wanna make myself clear).

I was wrong and I wish you were here.

(God, I wish that you were here).

Everybody out here's smiling

(everybody out here's smiling)

and the sun is always shining,

(and the sun is always shining)

but I'm all alone and wishing you were here.

Everybody out here's smiling

(everybody out here's smiling)

and the sun is always shining,

(and the sun is always shining)

but I'm all alone and wishing you were here.

Perfectly clear

Wishing you were here

Perfectly clear

Perfectly clear
