Ooh oh ... Yeah
You can be the peanut butter to my jelly
You can be the butterflies I feel in my belly
You can be the captain and I can be your first mate
You can be the chills that I feel on our first date
You can be the hero and I can be your side kick
You can be the tear that I cry if we ever split
You can be the rain from the cloud when it's storming
Or you can be the sun when it shines in the morning
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you 'cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
'Cause you're the apple to my pie (pie)
You're the straw to my berry (berry)
You're the smoke to my high (high)
And you're the one I wanna marry (marry)
'Cause you're the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
You can be the prince and I can be your princess
You can be the sweet tooth I can be the dentist
You can be the shoes and I can be the laces
You can be the heart that I spill on the pages
You can be the vodka and I can be the chaser
You can be the pencil and I can be the paper
You can be as cold as the winter weather
But I don't care as long as we're together
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you 'cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
'Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
'Cause you're the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
You know that I'll never doubt ya
And you know that I think about ya
And you know I can't live without ya
I love the way that you smile
And maybe in just a while
I can see me walk down the aisle
'Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
'Cause you're the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
About This Song
"Perfect Two" is a tender pop-rock love song that celebrates the concept of complementary partnership through an extended metaphor of everyday objects and experiences that naturally belong together. Auburn uses simple, relatable imagery-peanut butter and jelly, butterflies in the stomach, captain and first mate-to express how two people can maintain their individual identities while forming a complete, harmonious unit. The song's genius lies in its rejection of the toxic "you complete me" narrative in favor of depicting love as two whole people who enhance each other's strengths and balance each other's weaknesses. Musically, the track features a gentle acoustic guitar foundation with soft rock production that emphasizes Auburn's warm, conversational vocal delivery, creating an intimate atmosphere that feels like a personal confession rather than a grand declaration. The lyrics explore both the euphoric highs of new love (butterflies, first date chills) and the potential vulnerability that comes with deep connection (tears if they split), acknowledging that true partnership involves risk. The song resonated with listeners because it offered a mature, realistic vision of love that felt attainable rather than fantastical-celebrating the beauty of finding someone who fits naturally into your life rather than someone who dramatically transforms it. Its enduring appeal stems from the universal desire to find that person who feels like the missing piece you didn't know you needed.
