(Video) Ed Sheeran - Perfect lyrics
The opening single Sheeran created for his third studio album was titled "Perfect."
Written about his future wife Cherry Seaborn, whom he knew from school and later reconnected with when she was working in New York, the song is a romantic ballad that emphasizes conventional marriage.
Sheeran explained that he got the idea for the song's lyrics while staying at James Blunt's house in Ibiza with the two other artists, where they had listened to Future's music at six in the morning. We were listening to our favorite song, Future's "March Madness," while barefoot on the grass. The studio was reserved for the day, and once I had that, I thought, "Right, let me just flesh that out." And the song sort of happened completed on the day. I recognized its uniqueness.
The song was self-produced by Sheeran with assistance from Will Hicks. His brother Matthew Sheeran orchestrated the strings for the recording. The brothers had never previously worked together on a song, but it was their grandmother's dying wish to witness them making music together.

lyrics
I found a love for me
Oh, darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holding mine
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
Well, I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this, you look perfect tonight
