Misplaced
Written and recorded by Moxy Fruvous
From the album "Wood" (WEA CD-10616, 1995)
Your phone call from Montreal said I was back into you.
But as I listened to the words fall, I dreaded as the artist drew
Me down on my knees with liquid eyes begging please,
won't you stay for another course
But if I was you I'd agree with what you chose to do....... And
(Chorus)
I tried and tried and tried that night.
I cried and cried so that we would fight.
And distance was the accomplice that saw me lose.
The most that I ever knew,
Everything if not the sun,
In a space that could handle two...
You were gone.
You gave me your heart and habits, proverbially at my side.
And though maybe I took advantage, you know I never really lied.
I was out in the field collecting strength for my shield,
and I misplaced what made me real.
I can't ask you to wait around but you know you can't deny..... that
(Chorus)
(Intrumental) And
(Chorus)
