Blue Muse Lyrics
Winter Swells
Ruth Moody
Winter swells and wraps itself around me
I swear it’s never found me this helpless before
The sky is white and the day’s as cold as clay
Just a ghost of yesterday when we were happy not being sure
But it’s ok cause we know we should be ready
And we’re sick of feeling unsteady here just waiting for the snow
So we hang last night up to fry with the pleasure we never took
It’s only natural that we look for another place to go
And something’s calling you to Montreal
You’re hoping to get there by the first snowfall
Maybe you’ll get through winter after all
After all
And it’s no big surprise
With all these goodbyes
That I feel so lonely tonight
Lonely tonight
The phone rings and it’s you and I know
That if I want this to be over this is the last chance I’ve got
And I pick up and it’s you and I’m speechless till i speak
And my words seem to ensure that it’s not
And now you’re leaving on an eastbound train
You’re telling me you’ll be back this way again
Well I wonder will it ever be the same
Be the same
And it’s no big surprise
With all these goodbyes
That I feel so lonely tonight
Lonely tonight
Heaven When We’re Home
Ruth Moody
Don’t know what time it is, I’ve been up for way too long
and I’m too tired to sleep
I call my mother on the phone, she wasn’t home,
and now I’m wondering the street
I’ve been a fool, I’ve been cruel to myself
I’ve been hanging onto nothing
when nothing could be worse than hanging on
And something tells me there must be
something better than all this
I’ve fallen many times in love and every time
it’s been with the wrong man
Still I’m out there living one day at a time
and doing the best I can
Cuz we’ve all made mistakes
that seem to lead us astray
But every time they helped to get us where we are today
And that’s a good a place as any
and it’s probably where we’re best off anyway
It’s a long and rugged road
and we don’t now where it’s headed
But we know it’s going to get us where we’re going
And when we find what we’re looking for
we’ll drop these bags and search no more
‘Cuz it’s going to feel like heaven when we’re home
It’s going to feel like heaven when we’re home
There’s no such thing as perfect,
and if there is we’ll fnd it when we’re good and dead
Trust me I’ve been looking
bu tonight I think I’ll go and take a bath instead
And then maybe I’ll walk a while
and feel the earth beneath me
They say if you stop looking
it doesn’t matter if you find it
And whose to say that even if I did
it’s what I’m really looking for
It’s a long and rugged road
and we don’t now where it’s headed
But we know it’s going to get us where we’re going
And when we find what we’re looking for
we’ll drop these bags and search no more
‘Cuz it’s going to feel like heaven when we’re home
It’s going to feel like heaven when we’re home
Tried
Ruth Moody
I’ve got these secrets inside
I thought I should hide
But now I think it’s time that you knew
Cause I’ve waited too long and it’s doing me wrong
To be keeping these secrets from you
Cause I’ve tried and I’ve tried I’ve tried so hard
I’ve tried harder than I’ve ever tried before
There’s nothing I can do cause I’m still in love with you
And I can’t stay away anymore
I keep thinking the thoughts dreaming those dreams
That I know I should try and forget
But it’s all been in vain
Cause you’re on my mind again
It’s been you since the day that we met
Oh I’ve tried and I’ve tried I’ve tried so hard
I’ve tried harder than I’ve ever tried before
There’s nothing I can do cause I’m still in love with you
And I can’t stay away anymore
The harder I try the weaker I feel
And the silence gets louder the more I conceal
I know there’s no peace till all is revealed
I know better than to look this long into your eyes
I know better than to see you at all
And I know not to think that you’ll ever know my heart
Or to think I’ve a hope if I fall
But I’ve tried and I’ve tried I’ve tried so hard
I’ve tried harder than I’ve ever tried before
There’s nothing I can do cause I’m still in love with you
And I can’t stay away anymore
Sun’s Gonna Rise
Ruth Moody
I have lines under my eyes that I didn’t have last year
I’ve got the world’s weight on my shoulders and I have wept a thousand years
And I’m looking for a saviour to take me far away from here
Where the storm has passed over and the sky above is clear
I’ve got lines under my eyes that I’ve never had before
There’s a war outside my window and a wasteland outside my door
And I’ve been traveling down this road all these days and all these nights
I’ve been traveling for so long now, I’ve been searching for the light
We’ve got pain and we’ve got sorrow that we’ve been trying not to feel
We’ve got trouble all around us and we’ve got wounds that still won’t heal
So let’s hold on to each other and let love take us through the night
Help us stumble through the darkness, take us to the morning light
I have lines under my eyes that I didn’t have last year
I’ve got the world’s weight on my shoulders but I won’t shed another tear
Cause the sun is gonna rise and tomorrow’s another day
Comfort of the Road
Ruth Moody
I long for the comfort of the road
Where we sit deep in thought and reverie
And we wait for night to come and take us over
I long for the comfort of the road
I long for the Freedom of the road
Where are troubles can’t find us cause we left ‘em all behind
And we’re no longer looking but we’re sure as hell to find
I long for the freedom of the road
Chorus:
Where I might take your hand and nobody would know
Where you might hold me close and never let me go
And we wouldn’t fear a thing and if we did we’d let it go
I long for the freedom of the road
I long for the silence of the road
Where nothing is spoken and everything is heard
And we sit in the darkness with no need to say a word
I long for the silence of the road
