Perhaps Lyrics - Mr T Experience

Maybe the world has finally gone so wrong 

it's taken all the pleasure out of being right 

even ordinary things seem so far out of reach 

that they are almost out of sight 

so why propose worst case scenarios? 

they seem to find ways to come true 

we live in an imperfect world 

that we must concede 

and some things are impossible 

take that as agreed 

but getting some of what you want 

and most of what you need? 

perhaps, perhaps 

Now that the endless march of bitterness has worn us out 

it could be time to call a halt 

sometimes even victims of injustice must admit 

that something might have been their fault 

all the same assigning all the blame 

could take all the time in the world 

and I don't have that kind of time, forever is a curse 

and I don't want to be the ruler of the universe 

but staying in a little world that won't get too much worse? 

perhaps, perhaps. 

"A world of our own" sounds so trite 

but that's almost all right 

the way I thought that it would be has vanished in the air 

and most of it's impossible, and I don't really care 

but reaching out for somebody who's actually there? 

perhaps, perhaps.
