"It Isn’t Perfect But It Might Be (from “Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy” Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)"

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, mm

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

There's a lot of ground to cover

One foot and then the other

On my way, my way to somewhere new

A few false starts, can you forgive this

Cautious heart and just bear with it

While it does what I thought it couldn't do?

I could go back to the old place

And write your name on every blank page

But it's a story now, just a story now

It's the kind of thing that you'd say

You say no need to look behind me

That I can keep you here beside me

To make a mess of it, then make the best of it

It isn't perfect, but it might be

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, hm

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

You dip your toe and then you paddle

All before you swim the channel

Thought I'd never make it, but I might

Oh, I could go back to the old place

And write your name on every blank page

But it's a story now, just a story now

It's the kind of thing that you'd say

You say no need to look behind me

That I can keep you here beside me

To make a mess of it, then make the best of it

It isn't perfect, but it might be

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, mm (hm)

Treading lightly, thinking slightly

It just might be, it just might be

Treading lightly, thinking slightly

It just might be, it just might be

It just might be

Oh, I could go back to the old place

And write your name on every blank page

But it's a story now, just a story now

It's the kind of thing that you'd say

That there's no need to look behind me (yeah)

That I can keep you here beside me (yeah)

To make a mess of it, then make the best of it

It isn't perfect, but it might be there

(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) like it might be, yeah (mm)

Like it might be (la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la), ooh, ooh

Ooh

Might be, might be, might be
