Six string in the corner in its case
Not too much to say about this place
I could pick it up if I so choose
But here I am staring at my shoes
Come to me, Erato
Tell me how should this one go
Could it be it's our last chance
To make the cool kids dance
Send me lightning in a bottle
Erato! Erato! Erato!
In the middle of the night between the sheets
Lay with me and whisper something sweet
Just a kiss of melody and rhyme
Something that can stand the test of time
Sing to me, Erato
Teach me how to make it flow
You were once a friend of mine
Now I'm running out of time
Send me lightning in a bottle
Erato! Erato! Erato!
Six string in the corner in a case
Here I am still staring into space
Are you a goddess or a muse
Are you just a figment of my blues
Play for me, Erato
One more time before you go
Something I can hang my hat on
Yesterday or satisfaction
Send me lightning in a bottle
Erato! Erato! Erato!
Erato! Erato! Erato! Erato!
