The Mr. T Experience - Perhaps lyrics

Maybe the world has finally gone so wrong

it's taken all the pleasure out of being right

even ordinary things seem so far out of reach

that they are almost out of sight

so why propose worst case scenarios?

they seem to find ways to come true

we live in an imperfect world

that we must concede

and some things are impossible

take that as agreed

but getting some of what you want

and most of what you need?

perhaps, perhaps

Now that the endless march of bitterness has worn us out

it could be time to call a halt

sometimes even victims of injustice must admit

that something might have been their fault

all the same assigning all the blame

could take all the time in the world

and I don't have that kind of time, forever is a curse

and I don't want to be the ruler of the universe

but staying in a little world that won't get too much worse?

perhaps, perhaps.

"A world of our own" sounds so trite

but that's almost all right

the way I thought that it would be has vanished in the air

and most of it's impossible, and I don't really care

but reaching out for somebody who's actually there?

perhaps, perhaps.
