Smashing Pumpkins - Soothe lyrics

(This time it's gonna be perfect...)

I don't want half-hearted love affairs

I need someone who really cares

Life is too short to play silly games

I promise myself I won't do that again

REFRAIN I:

It's got to be perfect

It's got to be worth it

Too many people take second best

But I won't take anything less

It's got to be perfect

REFRAIN II:

Young hearts are foolish

They make such mistakes

They're much too eager to give their love away

Well I've been foolish too many times

Now I'm determined I'm gonna get it right

(Repeat Refrain I)

CODA:

(It's got to be ...)

You better think about it

It's got to be perfect, yeah yeah

(It's got ...)

The kind that will stand the test of time, yeah

(Too many ...)

But I won't take anything less

(It's got to be perfect)

(Repeat Refrain I and II)

(Repeat Coda)

It's got to be perfect

It's got to be perfect

It's got to be perfect
