I want to find this girl I know
I need to take her out
I set a snare in evening air
Made of faith and hope and doubt
I want to spend some time with her
learn the secrets of her trade
I wouldn't mean to cross the line
And look into the other side
Forbidden to my kind,
Forbidden to my kind
I need to hang out with my love
Nor even-headed sprite?
I know I'll never dance like him
Or keep her up at night
I need to hang or run with her
I need to let her know
Her cause is mine I'm but a slave
I look into her wondrous gaze
and taste the strangest chord
and make the purest noise
(Chorus)
What I would to do to meet the girl?
I'd stand out in the rain
I outside my window watching close, she will appear again
Still polishing her crazy nail,
still whisperin' careless drunk on song
If I could only right my wrongs and take her to my favorite place and steal her melody
'Cause I need only see her face
A dancer worries far away and music rushes in
Listen to the sound of life dripping off the day
Wait for her but don't obsess, she will go the other way
Winds will blow and storms will rage, muses always sigh
Money tends to disappear, pity crumbles with the years
Music is for us
Music is for us
(Chorus)x1
If I could only see her face and know that she was close
There is a deeper magic here, the everlasting muse
I love the danger for a nod, I love the silence for a dig
I know that I am in safe hands
She pays the bill and smokes a cigar and now the night can?***
She weaves her manuscript with skill and then she'll *** the tapestry of words
a subtle gift of modern rock, she says,
Be popular, play pop and you will win my love
A subtle gift of modern rock
Be popular, play pop and you will win my love
**** Intense chorus melding I can not make out what he's singing at all at these points.
