Musings on the muse.

lyrics

Oh, Calliope
I can't hardly sleep
With you a-chasin' me
I declare and suddenly
There without a warning a melody

Chorus
Here inside your prison walls
The courts of kings the dancer's halls
And anywhere is the everywhere
In your design something so fine
Is ringing the air

Oh Calliope
When you're volunteerin'
To be disappearin' with me
Offering your point of view
If it's no trouble, I could kinda use something brand new

Chorus
When you hold me in your thrall
When you make the rise and fall
Belong to me sing your song for me
Lead on inspire I'll tend the fire
What charming company

Oh calamity
If you should ever go, and leave me be
Won’t that be a tragedy
Gone without a trace
Calliope

Chorus
When you're startin' up with me
On about something I should see
The words they come
Don't know where they're from
And when you sing, I'm listening
You put on the run

Oh calamity
If you should ever leave, and let me be
Won’t that be the tragedy
Gone without a trace
Calliope
