Black muse can eye talk to youWhat eye got to share is mighty good newsA brand new day is dawningBut you and me know what to do(So much work to do)Black muse we've been so abusedOur mothers were good-looking and our fathers were toBut if they don't stay togetherWe can't walk no better in these shoes(Black muse)Long ago two men held one of us downAnother took a whip and made a terrible soundBaby watched her father falling down to the groundThat was you and meBlack muse can eye share with youJust came this morning and it's mighty good newsThey tipped the hour glassNow everything is passedIt's trueThey gave the world back to you and meThe faces on the mountains and a dirty seaA trillion dollar bill and no currencyStill we believeBlack muse we gonna make it throughSurly people that created rhythm and bluesRock and roll and jazzSo you know we're built to lastIt's cool, it's cool, it's cool(Black muse)A new day is dawningBlack museA new day is dawningBlack museNow that eye got your attentionEye think its 'bout time eye mentionThe reason why eye wrote this songLike a ufo sightingFrom my heart eye am writingThe next close encounterTell me how longWill it be on land or near the waterWill it produce the sun or the black moon daughterOr a pillow covered with all our tears1000 Light years away from here(1000 Light years from here)1000 Light years away from here(1000 Light years from here)No yesterday or tomorrowNo better remedy for sorrowOr why the 5th held forever will make you cryEye don't know why1000 Light years from here(1000 Light years from here)Two unbroken circles joined together make a butterflyLittle darling don't you wanna try?There ain't nothing better than looking for meAnd seeing youSeeing you in the mirror1000 Light years away from hereWhy do we always seem so far away?When you know that eye really wanna be with you night and dayI'm running out of ways to say howSo eye think I'll just closeFor now
