[Verse 1] Black Muse can eye talk to you What eye got to share is mighty good news A brand new day is dawning But you and me know what to do (So much work to do) [Verse 2] Black Muse we've been so abused Our mothers were good-looking and our fathers were to But if they don't stay together We can't walk no better in these shoes (Black Muse) [Pre-Chorus 1] Long ago two men held one of us down Another took a whip and made a terrible sound Baby watched her father falling down to the ground That was you and me [Verse 3] Black Muse can eye share with you Just came this morning and it's mighty good news They tipped the hour gla** Now everything is pa**ed It's true [Pre-Chorus 2] They gave the world back to you and me The faces on the mountains and a dirty sea A trillion dollar bill and no currency Still we believe [Verse 4] Black Muse we gonna make it through Surly people that created rhythm and blues Rock and roll and jazz So you know we're built to last It's cool, it's cool, it's cool (Black Muse) [Chorus] A new day is dawning Black Muse A new day is dawning Black Muse [Bridge] Now that eye got your attention Eye think its 'bout time eye mention The reason why eye wrote this song Like a UFO sighting From my heart eye am writing The next close encounter Tell me how long Will it be on land or near the water Will it produce the sun or the black moon daughter Or a pillow covered with all our tears 1000 light years away from here (1000 light years from here) 1000 light years away from here (1000 light years from here) [Verse 5] No yesterday or tomorrow No better remedy for sorrow Or why the 5th held forever will make you cry Eye don't know why 1000 light years from here (1000 light years from here) [Verse 6] Two unbroken circles joined together make a bu*terfly Little darling don't you wanna try? There ain't nothing better than looking for me And seeing you Seeing you in the mirror 1000 light years away from here [Outro] Why do we always seem so far away? When you know that eye really wanna be with you night and day I'm running out of ways to say how So eye think I'll just close For now
