Moxy Fruvous - Misplaced lyrics

Your phone call from Montreal said

I was back into you

But as I listened to the words fall

I treaded 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 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 the 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 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 the space that could handle two

You were gone.
