I Left My Muse

[Verse I]
When we were new
We spoke in words both reverent and crude
We drank up the joy of feeling confused
And I knew [?]

Then we grew
Laughing at all of the pain we'd been through
We took our bitterness and sang it a tune
And I [?] was a joke, was a fluke

[Pre-Chorus]
But now there's nothing more to say
We shuffle our feet and we look away
What is there to do?

[Verse II]
I messed around
But everything I thought I had found
Left me limping like a dog from the pound

[Pre-Chorus]
But this time I'm still running strong
I try to explain but it comes out wrong
What is there to do?

[Chorus]
I left my muse
Left her singing the blues
I said farewell
Sorry but I fell for a love that's true
I left my muse

[Verse III]
When I was confused
When the celling and the floor skewed
She sat me down and said you feel like you do
Then I knew

[Pre-Chorus]
But now there's nothing more to say
We shuffle our feet and we look away
What is there to do?

[Chorus]
I left my muse
Left her singing the blues
I said farewell
Sorry but I fell for a love that's true
I left my muse

[Bridge]
She could be right now on a corner
Telling tricks for packs and jokes
I wish that I could go and pick you up
But it wouldn't be right
Cause

[Chorus]
I left my muse
Left her singing the blues
If I see her again, I hope we can still be friends
For a love that's true
I left my muse

[Outro]
I left my muse
I left my muse
My muse
Ooh
My muse
My muse
