I don't want half-hearted love affairs

I need someone who really cares

Life is too short to play silly games

I've promised myself, I won't do that again

Refrain:

(It's got to be perfect

It's got to be worth it, yea

Too many people take second best

But I won't take anything less

It's got to be perfect.)

Young hearts are foolish, they make such mistakes

They're much too eager to give their love away

Well i have been foolish too many times

Now i'm determined I'm going to get it right

Refrain

Refrain

It's got to be worth it, it's got to be perfect
