"It Isn't Perfect But It Might Be (Wurli Version)" lyrics - OLIVIA DEAN

There's a lot of ground to cover
One foot and then the other
On my way, my way to somewhere new
A few false starts, can you forgive this
Cautious heart and just bear with it
While it does what I thought it couldn't do

[Chorus:]
I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it's a story now, just a story now
That's the kind of thing that you'd say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn't perfect, but it might be

[Post-Chorus:]
Mm-mm-mm

You dip your toe and then you paddle
All before you swim the channel
Thought I'd never make it, but I might

[Chorus:]
I could go back to the old place
And write your name on every blank page
But it's a story now, just a story now
That's the kind of thing that you'd say
You say no need to look behind me
That I can keep you here beside me
To make a mess of it, then make the best of it
It isn't perfect, but it might be
