a record in progress.
Would you mind if I wrote a song for you
bout' a man singin to his muse, and I ‘d say
if you want to take your time, i'll turn this cab around
you have made me patient at last
it may be that you've hidden time in the grip of my hand
and held me in a limbo i can't understand
Caught between where I am and what I've been
Unsure of which is me
vocation has no worth unless it costs all you have
i could not ask you to follow me down here
its too dark, but how i've longed for you
would you mind being my muse?
Enough about me seeing as you won't call
Guess I'll write the story before we begin
Oversights and a few months pass
When you realize I won't change
Find ourselves locked in a tug of war
You've got my heart and I'm holdin on to yours
Winning you turn away call only enough to keep me down
And I'll write on this for years
vocation has no worth unless it costs all you have
i could not ask you to follow me down here
its too dark, but how i've longed for you
would you mind being my muse?Curious, curious spent a long time on this one
And I hope you feel unique
I ain’t ever look, like I look at you
No no, no no, norah, no
Oh oh oh oh, its beyond me to imagine better than you, norah
Oh oh oh oh, it ain’t a problem so if you don’t mind when I go will you come with me?
A thousand words in modern art might take a million works
But a photo only captures you behind the lense
Even the great works could not nearly describe you
No no, no no, norah, no
Oh oh oh oh, its beyond me to imagine better than you, norah
Oh oh oh oh, it ain’t a problem so if you don’t mind when I go will you come with me?
I’ve learned not to dive too quick
Not to presume more than I know
Did I catch myself to keep myself from falling?
No no, no no, norah, no
Oh oh oh oh, its beyond me to imagine better than you, norah
Oh oh oh oh, it ain’t a problem so if you don’t mind when I go will you come with me?
