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 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
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
