Calypso-flavored tune with maybe the most-dynamic melody that I've ever written. Probably covers a couple of octaves, which is challenging for me. But I think that it's a nice melody and a lot of fun to play.

A Perfect Girl, A Perfect Tune
1.
I forgot to close the blinds the night before
And I know that my window faces east
The light came pouring through in the morning
It burned my eyes in slashing, white-hot streaks
(Pre-chorus)
So I groped around my room to find the dresser
To prepare myself for the day ahead
(Chorus)
And I never could have known what was coming
A perfect girl, humming a perfect tune
I got scared at what I felt and started running
Away and into love with you
2.
I forgot to close the blinds sort-of on-purpose
Because I didn’t really want to have to see
I thought that I could hide just like a child –
What I can’t see, I know cannot see me
(Pre-chorus)
So I groped around my bed to find the blankets
To cower in the comfort of my room
(Chorus)
And I never could have known what was coming
A perfect girl humming a perfect tune
I got scared at what I felt and started running
Away and into love with you
(Pre-chorus)
And I groped around my life to find some answers
I was not prepared for what happened next
(Chorus)
So I never could have known what was coming
A perfect girl humming a perfect tune
I got scared at what I felt and started running
Away and into love with you
