Betting on the Muse |
| Another golden evening is dying on the vine |
| A rehearsal for the final act |
| When the light that’s lost is mine |
| All this blinding beauty has left me no excuse |
| I know the sun is setting |
| Who knows where it’s heading? |
| I’m still betting |
| Betting on the muse |
| My courage often staggers but still we climb the stairs |
| I lie awake and wonder, are they songs or are they prayers? |
| This beautiful delusion |
| If it’s all a ruse |
| It’s such a lovely setting |
| For my snakeskin to keep shedding |
| I’m still betting |
| Betting on the muse |
| You’ve got to die inside so many times |
| While you’re trying to learn to live |
| You’ve got to get taken for everything |
| To have anything to give |
| Your signal is receiving |
| Some days it’s called breathing |
| I’m remembering your kisses |
| Our lips raw with love |
| But the fact that you still make me laugh |
| Is what I’m most proud of |
| You learn to be astonished |
| That’s how you pay your dues |
| What am I forgetting? |
| Nothing I’m regretting |
| I’m still betting |
| Betting on the muse |
| What am I forgetting? |
| Nothing I’m regretting, I’m letting go |
| What I’m not getting |
| I’m still betting |
| Betting on the muse |
