CUP OF TEA

[Intro] [Verse] She holds my memory and name In sacred care by beating breast Her nerves she said had rendered lame This meeting while the years still test [Chorus] A body tossed by care and creak Cannot command her timeless smile A wish for future’s light to peak Her fear for time that chokes a-while [Verse] The weary watch that cheats the chat Another cuppa for the road Levity lights for dad and cat Then back to day – its chill and load [Chorus] A body tossed by care and creak Cannot command her timeless smile A wish for future’s light to peak Her fear for time that chokes a-while [Break] [Verse] She holds my memory and name In sacred care by beating breast Her nerves she said had rendered lame This meeting while the years still test [Chorus] A body tossed by care and creak Cannot command her timeless smile A wish for future’s light to peak Her fear for time that chokes a-while [Verse] The weary watch that cheats the chat Another cuppa for the road Levity lights for dad and cat Then back to day – its chill and load [Chorus] A body tossed by care and creak Cannot command her timeless smile A wish for future’s light to peak Her fear for time that chokes a-while [Break] [Verse] She holds my memory and name In sacred care by beating breast Her nerves she said had rendered lame This meeting while the years still test [Chorus] A body tossed by care and creak Cannot command her timeless smile A wish for future’s light to peak Her fear for time that chokes a-while [Verse] The weary watch that cheats the chat Another cuppa for the road Levity lights for dad and cat Then back to day – its chill and load [Chorus] A body tossed by care and creak Cannot command her timeless smile A wish for future’s light to peak Her fear for time that chokes a-while
