Lyrics

She wears long sleeves and a perfect smile
Even holds his hand
Laughs and talks for a little while
Tells them he’s the perfect man
Driving home, she looks at him
Tries to remember a time back when
He thought she was perfect
Those days elude her now
Shame enfolds her when her friends ask where she’s been
They don’t call much anymore; every now and then
And she says, everything is fine, fine, fine
He tells me he’s sorry
She’ll wear long sleeves
Even hold his hand
Laugh and talk for a little while
Tell them he’s the perfect man
Driving home, she looks at him
Tries to remember a time back when
He thought she was perfect
Those days elude her now
The house is always a mess
I hate it when you cry
What are you doing in that dress
Remember, I can tell if you lie
She says, everything is fine, fine, fine
He tells me he’s sorry
Long sleeves
She laughs for a little while
Tells them he’s the perfect man
Driving home, she looks at him
Tries to remember a time back when
He thought she was perfect
Those days elude her now
