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
