Little Muse

Verse 1Little Muse had a hat too wide and a pocket full of rhymes.
He left his patch of clover at dawn to find a love that felt like home.
He asked the keeper of the counter store and the postman at the gate.
Have you seen a heart that might fit mine? I fear I'm running late.

ChorusOh, Muse, keep walking that old dirt road, past the fence where the wildflowers grow.
Love may be nearer than the next bend shows, so tip your hat and take it slow.
Little Muse, with your hopeful tune, you'll find your someone underneath this wide blue moon.

Verse 2He tried the church picnic, tried the fair, shared his pie and danced the square.
But every time he found a smile, his shy words wandered off a mile.
Then by the bridge where the cattails lean, a girl was mending a kite.
She said, you look like you've lost your way. He said, maybe I have, but you're a lovely sight.

ChorusOh, Muse, keep walking that old dirt road, past the fence where the wildflowers grow.
Love may be nearer than the next bend shows, so tip your hat and take it slow.
Little Muse, with your hopeful tune, you'll find your someone underneath this wide blue moon.

Verse 3They tied the kite with a piece of twine, watched it climb through the afternoon.
She laughed when his hat blew down the hill. He ran after it and she ran too.

Final ChorusOh, Muse, now walk that old dirt road, two sets of steps where the wildflowers grow.
Love was waiting where the river bends slow, a shared small laugh, a hand to hold.
Little Muse, beneath the evening blue, you found your someone and she was looking for you.

OutroLittle Muse, don't wander far, love came walking where you are.
Where you are.
