Perfect Song - Solomon Burke

Perfect Song - Solomon Burke
Written by：Solomon Burke/Huub van der Lubbe/Nico Arzbach/Roland Brunt
I wish there'd be a song that would
Stop the hunger and pain
Stop the poverty and strain
For once and all time
'Cause there'd be a song that would
Make the soldiers drop their guns
Make the sun shine for once
Hurt by violence and crime
I wish there'd be a song that would
Soothe the souls of those who suffer
From their lives just getting tougher
Until all hatred's gone astray
And if there was a song that could
Fertilize the desert
Neutralize all hazard
I would write one right away
Once I wrote it we would sing it
And oh it would be a perfect song
With perfect verses
Perfect chorus
But I'm afraid I might get it slightly wrong
I wish there'd be a song that would
Perform God's miracles
Make the lame stand up and walk
Give sight back to the blind
And if there was a song that could
Bring love and peace on earth
Tear down every crooked church
I'd write a dozen of the kind
Once I wrote it we would sing it
And oh it would be a perfect song
Perfect strum
With perfect verses perfect chorus
But I'm afraid I might get it slightly wrong
Yes once I wrote it we could sing it
And it would be a perfect song
Perfect verses
Perfect chorus
But I'm afraid I'd get it slightly wrong
Hmm perfect verses
Perfect chorus
But I'm afraid it can't be done
The song can't be done
