It would've been nice to see you coming

But that would've ruined the surprise

It would've been nice to have a picture-perfect world

But then the truth would hurt my eyes

It's hard to see a picture drop

Before it hits the ground

It's nice to know you're here

And you're helping me down

You were always there when I needed

You could always see me clearly and

You were never looking for a thing

You...I'm singing one for you

It would've been cool to never fall down

But then I never would've seen

That power isn't with the picture-perfect person

You taught me better things come from in between

It's hard to see a picture drop

Before it hits the ground

It's nice to know you're here

And you're helping me down

You were always there when I needed

You could always see me clearly and

You were never looking for a thing

You...I'm singing one for you

It would've been nice to see you coming

But that would've ruined the surprise

It would've been nice to have a picture-perfect world

But then the truth would hurt my eyes

You were always there when I needed

You could always see me clearly and

You were never looking for a thing

You...I'm singing one for you
