[Verse 1]
Cm7 Dm7 G7
There's a girl standin' on a corner
Cm7 G7
Watchin' love walk right out her door
Cm7 Dm7 G7
She thought that love was like a shiny diamond
Cm7 G7 G Cm7 Dm7 G7
Blinded by the light, she did not see the flaw
[Verse 2]
Cm7 Dm7 G7
Now she's lonely, standin' there for hours
Cm7 G7
Wishin' he would change his mind
Cm7 Dm7 G7
Caught in that paradox of feelin's
Cm7 G7 G
Wonderin' why the hurt when it used to feel so fine
[Chorus]
Cm7 F7
Love is a perfect imperfection
Cm7 F7 G7
Sometimes a happy, sometimes sad
Cm7 F7
Whenever love comes your direction
Cm7 G7
Don't you hide away, don't you hide, don't you hide
[Bridge]
Ab F Eb
You know that there's no reason for you to be alone
Ab F
Just 'cause love's treason, broke, broke your, happy home
Eb G Cm7
How can you celebrate when all you feel is sufferin' heartache
[Instrumental]
G7 Cm7 Dm7 G7
[Verse 2]
Cm7 Dm7 G7
I'm goin' down to that lonely corner
Cm7 G7
Sidewalk stretchin' out beneath my feet
Cm7 Dm7 G7
Wish I could walk, walk right up to her
Cm7 G7 G
And tell her what I know of love; What I know, it always so sweet
[Chorus]
Cm7 F7
Love is a perfect imperfection
Cm7 F7 G7
Sometimes a happy, sometimes sad
Cm7 F7
Whenever love comes your direction
Cm7 G7
Don't you hide away, don't you hide, don't you hide
[Chorus]
Cm7 F7
Love is a perfect imperfection
Cm7 F7 G7
Sometimes a happy, sometimes sad
Cm7 F7
Whenever love comes your direction
Cm7 G7
Don't you hide away, don't you hide, don't you hide
[Outro]
Cm7 G7 Cm7 G7 G
Don't you hide
