[Verse 1]
Fare thee well
Trade in all our words for tea and sympathy
Wonder why we tried, for things could never be
Play our heart's lament
Like an unrehearsed symphony
[Verse 2]
Not intend
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
[Chorus]
'Cause it's not the way
That it has to be
Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy, no
And it's not the way
That it has to be
[Verse 3]
You begin
All your words fall to the floor 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
Fare thee well
Trade in all our words for tea and sympathy
Wonder why we tried, for things could never be
Play our heart's lament
Like an unrehearsed symphony
[Verse 2]
Not intend
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
[Chorus]
'Cause it's not the way
That it has to be
Don't trade our love for tea and sympathy, no
And it's not the way
That it has to be
[Verse 3]
You begin
All your words fall to the floor 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
