Misplaced Lyrics - Moxy Fruvous

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.
