Who would believe just a year ago
When we met in that Village bar
That the time would pass and a love would grow
And you'd be standing where you are

I longed to have what the couples shared
In the movies that I saw
And though I know that we aren't really paired
In the spirit of the law (***)

It's a perfect day
What a perfect way
To begin a life as one
Though the sun is gone
Still our light shines on
Til the perfect day is done

I could promise you a lifetime like this
And do the best I can [ALT: And work to make it true]
Could you tolerate a lifetime like this?
If so then I'm your man [ALT:Then I'm the one for you]

A perfect day
Sometimes makes you say
Where's this joyous feeling from?
When the clock hits twelve
Is it time to delve
Into fears of years to come

But I'll stand by these words
Even though some
Say that romance is a phase
Our life is bound to be
A life of perfect days

Yes, I'll stand by these words
Even though some
Say that romance is a phase
Since finally I've found someone to give for
Someone with a smile that i can live for
Life is bound to be
A life of perfect days
A life of perfect days

(***) ALTERNATE LYRIC WHERE SAME-SEX MARRIAGE IS ACCEPTED:
And since the world has changed and we're fin'lly paired
In the letter of the law
