Never the Muse

Always the artist

Never the muse

Crave your attention

You don't have a clue

Keep locking eyes from across crowded rooms

Did you catch my glance or were you looking too?

Always the poet

Never the poetry

Wanna be somebody you only see

Once in your life but remember forever

Eyes sharp as knife

Hair soft as a feather

Compare me to a

Summer's day

Something romantic

Yet charmingly clever

I-

Wanna become all of the rays of the sun

Shining down on your face on a warm day

I wanna be the fresh ocean breeze

Fall to your knees at my feet

And beg me to pose

Beg me to be

Your Euterpe, Erato, Terpsichore

Write of my smile, sculpt me in clay

Use every metaphor you can to say that

I'm your muse

See me the same way that I see you

I'm your muse

See me the same way that I see-

You

You

You

Always the viewer

Never the view

Never the messy

Yet sweet ingenue

Romanticize me

Fantasize about all the ways I'd ruin your life

We keep locking eyes from across crowded rooms

Did you catch my glance or were you looking too?

Overthink every time that we speak

Then write up a song dedicated to me

I-

Wanna become all of the rays of the sun

Shining down on your face on a warm day

I wanna be the fresh ocean breeze

Fall to your knees at my feet

And beg me to pose

Beg me to be

Polyhymnia, Clio, Urania, please

Write of my smile, sculpt me in clay

Use every metaphor you can to say that

I'm your muse

See me the same way that I see you

I'm your muse

See me the same way that I see-
