Solomon Burke & De Dijk - Perfect Song lyrics

I wish there'd be a song that would Stop the hunger and pain Stop the poverty and strain For once and all time 'Cause if there'd be a song that would Make the soldiers drop their guns Make the sun shine for ones Hurt by violence and crime I wish there'd be a song that would Soothe the souls of who suffer From their lives that just get tougher Until all haters gone astray And if there was a song that could Fertilize the desert Neutralize all hazard I'd write one right away Once I wrote it we would sing it And oh, it would be a perfect song With perfect verses, perfect choruses But I'm afraid I might get it slightly wrong I wish there'd be a song that would Perform God's miracles Make the lame stand up and walk Give sight back to the blind And if there was a song that could Bring love and peace on earth Tear down every crooked church I'd write a dozen of that kind Once I wrote it we would sing it And oh, it would be the perfect song, the perfect song With perfect verses, perfect choruses But I'm afraid I might get it slightly wrong Yes, once I wrote it we would sing it And it would be the perfect song Perfect verses, perfect choruses But I'm afraid I get it slightly wrong Perfect verses, perfect choruses But I'm afraid it can't be done The song can't be done
