"You're almost nearly perfect!" "That's a rotten thing to say!" Corie and Paul Bratter [Barefoot in the Park]

Perfection. What an interesting concept. People are always concerned with finding that "perfect" person or their "perfect match". I think that too often we become so wrapped up in this idea of perfect we miss out on amazing opportunities that are right in front of our lives. Now, this isn't to say lower your standards by any means but let's face it - nobody's perfect. But, if we're lucky, we can find a partner who will be our equal in helping us to daily, strive for perfection. Just a thought.

On that note, today's song is a throwback to the good ol' elementary school days. Boy bands. Yup. You heard me. I myself was a big Backstreet Boys fan. In recent years I've come to have a love for N*SYNC as well, but the good ol' BSB will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you, bleach haired boys of the '90s, for reminding us that our love and our hearts and ultimately "All I have to Give"

Oh. And I hesitate to put the lyrics up. I mean, you always sing a long and you know you know the words but....when you actually read them - it's a wonder they got anywhere in this business ;)

#4 All I Have to Give
The Backstreet Boys


I don't know what he does to make you cry
But I'll be there to make you smile
I don't have a fancy car
To get to you I'd walk a thousand miles
I don't care if he buys you nice things
Does his gifts come from the heart?
I don't know
But if you were my girl
I'd make it so we'd never be apart

But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don't think I could live
I wish I could give the world to you
But love is all I have to give

When you talk (when you talk) does it seem like he's not
Even listening to a word you say?
That's okay babe, just tell me your problems
I'll try my best to kiss them all away
Does he leave (does he leave) when you need him the most?
Does his friends get all your time?
Baby please
I'm on my knees
Praying for the day that you'll be mine

To you... (hey girl) hey girl, I don't want you to cry no more inside
All the money in the world could never add up to all the love
I have inside... I love you

And I will give it to you
All I can give, all I can give
Everything I have is for you
But love is all I have to give
But my love is all I have to give
Without you I don't think I can live
I wish I could give the world to you
But love is all I have to give... to you
