A Perfect Date

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Intro] A perfect date to hesitate I hope it won't be too long [Chorus] You're a sucker for the punch And the telegraph bells are ringing; Now it's coming to the crunch As you stumble on the Jaffa Gate I think you know how it happens on the stage When the heavenly choir are singing – You've been taken by a perfect date [Verse 1] You made the Mount of Venus your Jerusalem You're marking time as symbol for debate; You hope to find one moment close to infinite You hope to find a perfect date [Pre-Chorus] A perfect date to hesitate The future beckons us on There comes a time to hesitate – I hope it won't be too long [Chorus] You're a sucker for the punch And the telegraph bells are ringing; Yeah, it's coming to the crunch As you stumble on the Jaffa Gate I think you know how it happens on the stage When the heavenly choir are singing – You've been taken by a perfect date [Verse 2] You've been playing on a hunch And the strings of your heart are zinging, are zinging, are zinging, are zinging Yeah, you cut loose from the bunch But that doesn't mean you've sealed your fate, your fate, your fate, your fate I think you know how it happens Though it's strange, when the choir start singing: Yeah, you've been taken by a perfect date You've been taken by a perfect date Yeah, here comes a perfect date (You've been taken by a perfect date) [Outro] A perfect date that comes to late The future beckons us on A perfect date to hesitate – I hope it won't be too long A perfect date that comes to late The future beckons us on A perfect date to hesitate – I hope it won't be too long A perfect date to hesitate – The future beckons us on A perfect date to hesitate – A perfect moment (Still waiting for a perfect date)
