Just behind Groovy Potential, this is my favorite cut off the album.
Reading the lyrics helps me comprehend the a little better.
Any corrections are encouraged and welcomed.
Black Muse
Can I talk to you
What I got to share
Is mighty good news
A brand new day is dawning
U and me know what to do
So much work to do
Black Muse
We've been so abused
Our mothers were good looking
And our fathers were too
If they don't stay together
We can walk no better in these shoes
Black Muse
Long ago 2 men held one of us down
Another took a whippin'
Made a terrible sound
A baby watch her father
Falling down to the ground
That was you... and me.
Black Muse
Can I share with you
Just came this morning
And it's mighty good news
They tipped the hour glass
Now everything is past
It's true...
They gave the world back to u and me
The faces on the mountains
And the dirty sea
A trillion dollar bill
And no currency
Still will we believe
Black Muse
We gon' make it thru
Surly people that created
Rhythm and blues
Rock & roll and jazz
So u know we're built to last
It's cooool, it's cooool, it's cooool
Black muse
A new day is coming
Black muuuse
A new day is dawning
Black muuuse
Now that I got your attention
I think its 'bout time I mention
The reason why i wrote this song
Like a UFO sighting
From my heart I am writing
The next close encounter
Well, tell me how long
Will it be on land or near the water
Will it produce the star
Of a black moon daughter
Or a pillow covered with all our tears
One thousand light years away from here
One thousand light years from here
No yesterday or tomorrow
No better remedy for sorrow
Then why the fifth held forever
Will make you cry
I don't know why
One thousand light years from here
One thousand light years from here
Two unbroken circles
Joined together
Make a butterfly
Little darling
Don't u wanna try
There ain't nothing better than
Looking for me and seeing u in the mirror
One thousand light years away from here
Why do we always seem so far away
When u know that I really
Wanna be with u night and day
Running out of ways to say how
So I think I'll just close for now.
