Perfect Mess Lyrics

Ithaca was just a dream
Before I met you, Ithaca
My home's been lost to strangers
A path left by invaders
Lead the way I'm gladly sure to stay
By your side
Don't hesitate
This one's worth time
Don't doubt the wait

'Cause we are the ones
We are the ones
And this perfect mess
Has everybody singing for
Something, someone, sometimes...
Yeah, this perfect mess has everybody wishing for you
To come be part of our world

Ithaca, I write these words
With hopes of reaching you, Ithaca
Don't think I'll lose you now
To the face and grip that time has on my mind
And the pouring rain
Is slowing down
This one's worth time
Don't let me drown

'Cause we are the ones
We are the ones
And this perfect mess
Has everybody singing for
Something, someone, sometimes...
Yeah, this perfect mess has everybody wishing for you
To come be part of our world

And they'll figure you out,
Know what you're all about
'Cause the candle light remembers every name
Every rhythm felt
Every rhythm moved
And every rhythm falling into you

And this perfect mess
Has everybody singing for
Something, someone, sometimes...
Yeah, this perfect mess has everybody wishing for you
To come be part of our world

And, yeah, this perfect mess
Has everybody singing for
Something, someone, sometimes...
Oh, this perfect mess has everybody wishing for you
To come be part...
To come be part...
To come be part of our world

This is probably my favorite Melee song. They are absolutely one of the coolest bands and their music is great. I heart them. The song's also a little about The Odyssey, which is also nice.
