D-DU-UDU
Fare thee well, Trade in all our words for tea and sympathy
Wonder why we tried for things could never be
Play our hearts lament like an unrehearsed symphony
(same as above)
Not intent, To leave this castle full of empty rooms
Our love the captive in the tower never rescued
And all the victory songs Seemed to be playing out of tune
'Cause it's not the way That is has to be
Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy, no
No, it's not the way That it has to be
(KEY CHANGE)
You begin, All your words fall to the ground and break like china cups
And the waitress grabs a broom and tries to sweep them up
I reach for my tea, slowly drink in
(same as above except for last line)
'Cause it's not the way
That is has to be
Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy, no
And it's not the way, That is has to be
Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy
musical bridge:
(same as V1)
Fare thee well, The words the bagger leaves that fill my head
I could taste the bitterness and call the waitress instead
'Cause she holds the answer, smiles and asks one teaspoon or two
(2nd time, repeat ending to 2nd chorus)
Don't trade us for tea and sympathy
echo]
Don't trade us for tea and sympathy
We can work it out
Don't trade us for tea and sympathy
echo]
Don't trade us for tea and sympathy
We can work out
We can work out
