Song meaning of In A Perfect World by Dean Lewis & Julia Michaels

Ah, "In A Perfect World" by Dean Lewis and Julia Michaels, where vulnerability meets fear of commitment in the most melodramatic way possible. Dean Lewis is like, "I am so terrified of falling in love, it's a rollercoaster of emotions, yada yada," as if he's the first person in the history of the universe to feel this way. And then Julia Michaels comes in and basically tells him, "Congratulations on being self-aware, but seriously, why on earth would you walk away from something perfect? It's just plain stupid, darling." These two are like an emotional ping-pong match, leaving each other when things are too good, because running away from happiness is totally the norm, guys. In their perfect world, they're here together, kissing slowly in dim-lit rooms and constantly reassuring each other that they won't bolt when things get too good. But honestly, isn't that what we all dream of? A world where we're not constantly running from our problems and losing our minds over the fear of losing someone? So cheers to their chaotic love story, and here's to hoping they find that perfect world they're desperately seeking.
