Perfect Love Lyrics

Down by the boathouse at Shaker Lake 
When there wasn't nothing but love to make 
They were two young lovers 
Wishing on the stars above 
Well they carved their initials 
In an old birch tree 
With a heart and an arrow and a '63 
You had to be blind not to see 
It was a perfect love
Well they worked one summer together 
At the '64 World's Fair 
They met Robert Kennedy there 
Well that was right before the fall 
And they saved up a little bit of money
For his career 
And they talked about the future 
Underneath the giant sphere 
And all around them 
The little voices were singing 
"It's a small world after all" 
Yes it is--small world after all 
And it was-- 
Perfect love
It was a perfect love 
Now they were dizzy from dancing 
On Rockaway Beach 
They came to Rockaway 
And everything they dreamed of was 
Still within reach 
Dreaming. . .
Dreaming as the years roll by 
(Like they always do) 
Well they had their share 
Of hard times too 
But whatever they were 
They never let it get them down 
Now they just go walking 
Down a country lane 
See the leaves are changing 
In the misty rain 
And only one thing remains the same-- 
Just the perfect love 
(Under the moon and the stars above) 
It was a perfect love
