You were inspiration, but inspiration died
It fell into the river before my very eyes
I reached out to save it, but nothing could be done
A waterfall fell down my cheek, I watched the river run
You were inspiration, but inspiration drowned
Swallowed by the river, no where to be found
Silently I sat there, no words were left to speak
My words died the day you did, the river stole from me
You were inspiration, but inspiration's gone
The river took it from me and carried it along
It took my muse, that liquid thief, it drifted far away
My heart was still, it froze in time, to watch the river play
You were inspiration, but inspiration died
A part of me went with it, my heart broke deep inside
I'm standing at the river now, the place my muse expired
But, like you're the water now, it flows and I'm inspired
