Songs of Inspiration
Sting
A song about an author searching for his Muse?
White page, an empty field of snow
My room is twenty-five below
This cold pen chasing ghosts
A road lies underneath a buried post
Dogs search the underforest
We scour the empty streets
The fact remains until we find you
Our lives are incomplete
Quite possibly!
Led Zeppelin
How does one reach the abode of the gods?
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
This lady has some ideas.
The Alan Parsons Project
"Hey, Helios! Are you up there?"
I am the eye in the sky, looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules, dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more
To know that
I can read your mind
William Shakespeare also referred to the sun as "the day's eye."
