In a perfect world, I wouldn't have met you at all
In a perfect world, I would've said hi and moved on
Unfortunately, I don't know anything 'bout love
And its foolish tendencies
And just like Chet, I tend to fall in love too easily
In a perfect world, I'd live out my days by the sea
In a light blue cottage, just the sand, the ocean, and me
Unfortunately, I'm too romantic dramatic for that reality
I go ahead and just like Chet, I fall in love too easily

Why did you put me through
Eleven months of you're so pretty's, I miss you's?
It's absurd what even occurred between autumn and spring
If you never loved me

In a perfect world, I wouldn't have met you that night
Would've stayed with my friends and danced till the morning light
Unfortunately, I can't trust anybody that tells me anything
I go ahead and just like that, I fall a little hard and fast
At every turn, I feel a little heartbreak and a little burn
And just like Chet, I tend to fall in love too easily
Just like Chet, I tend to fall in love too easily
