A Perfect Mess

[Verse 1]

Well, well look at you

Little miss has to pick the wounds

And that’s so literal, and you're so critical

Well if you feel like there's cause to be cold you can straddle the stove

I'm a man not a handbag, a friend not a servant

Is it hell being right all the time?

[Chorus]

I wouldn’t call this dating

I'll get to know you the hard way

Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say

[Verse 2]

Well, well, well, with a woman like you, who needs to get out of bed?

Well, well, well, with a woman like you, who needs to have any friends?

Come whisper in my ear a secret so profound I'll forget to write it down

Now I'm left here with the memory of the best and worst thing I'll ever love

[Chorus]

I wouldn’t call this dating

I'll get to know you the hard way

Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say

I wouldn’t call this dating

I'll get to know you the hard way

Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say

[Bridge]

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

[Chorus]

I wouldn’t call this dating

I'll get to know you the hard way

Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say

I wouldn’t call this dating

I'll get to know you the hard way

Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say

That’s what they say

Some things will never change

Some things will never

[Outro]

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

Aren’t we a perfect mess?

Aren’t we a perfect mess?
