Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Just a perfect day

Drink Sangria in the park

And then later, when it gets dark, we go home

[Verse 2]

Just a perfect day

Feed animals in the zoo

Then later a movie, too

And then home

[Chorus]

Oh, it's such a perfect day

I'm glad I spent it with you

Oh, such a perfect day

You just keep me hanging on

You just keep me hanging on

[Verse 3]

Just a perfect day

Problems all left alone

Weekenders on our own

It's such fun

[Verse 4]

Just a perfect day

You made me forget myself

I thought I was someone else

Someone good

[Chorus]

Oh, it's such a perfect day

I'm glad I spent it with you

Oh, such a perfect day

You just keep me hanging on

You just keep me hanging on

[Outro]

You're going to reap just what you sow

You're going to reap just what you sow

You're going to reap just what you sow

You're going to reap just what you sow
