i could use a new muse - jay clemens lyrics

Loading...

intro:
staring down . . . at my eighty*eight keys
they can’t spark the fire inside of me
i am trite. i am tame. all my songs sound the same
my field has gone to seed
but i know what i need

verse 1
i could use a new muse
someone to light the fire that died with our romance
your eyes were open when we kissed
the birthday dinner that you missed
the pretty boy you favored with a longing glance

verse 2
now i drink absinthе straight
i meditate to clear my hеad of our affair
my verses have no story, my choruses no glory
now i sit and write another bridge to nowhere

bridge
i don’t need a face that launched a thousand ships
don’t need an angel or a starlet
i’d settle for a jezebel, a femme fatale – oh what the h*ll
i’d even take a diva with a fifth of good tequila
[instrumental break]

bridge
she’ll be fine with half the sparkle in your eyes
a sprinkling of your cultured charm
she doesn’t need your beaming smile, your gracious walk, your artful guile
if she’d pick me off the floor and nudge my body out the door

verse 3
when i choose my new muse
i’ll sing a song of faithful love with no adieu
but ‘til my perfect muse arrives
i’ll sit in gloomy smoke*filled dives
bent over in my chair, trying not to care
while i write another bridge to nowhere
