Muse



Below is the latest song I wrote, sounds more like a poem than a song but they are pretty interchangeable.

Muse:

I got the case of the blues

Because my lover has chosen another to be his muse

There were so many clues, so many weird rules

Questions would be answered with jewels

That were worth less than the gold of fools



Like every heart drawn in the sand

Waves of tears wash it away at the sea’s command

Like every heart carved in a tree

Eventually shadowed by thorns and weeds

Like my heart pounding in my chest

Will explode soon of despair and stress



The day I can make you mine

Is the day that my fears finally die

What does she have that I don’t

The body, the finesse, the attitude

Whereas she is in a different altitude

While being in the same latitude



If I were your muse, I would pose for you everyday

Serenade you in smokey cabarets

Prance around for you on Broadway

Would never go astray, yet you treat me like a castaway

And made a purebred out of a stray



The day I could make you mine

Is the day my tears will finally dry

Trying to stand tall as a weeping willow

Failing as I weep in my pillow

Curl up like an armadillo

Asking God how did it go this low



The day I could make you mine

Is the day I will finally be able to fly

My love will always be for you

No matter who else is between us two

No matter who springs out the blue

I am always ready to be your muse
