Jars Of Clay - Tea And Sympathy Lyrics

Submitted by: AUTO-ADD
Current Rating: None
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

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

cuz it's not the way
that it has to be
don't trade our love for tea and sympathy, no
no, it's not the way
that it has to be

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

cuz 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
don't trade our love for tea and sympathy

fare thee well
the words, the bag of leaves that fill my head
i could taste the bitterness and call the waitress instead
cuz she holds the answer, smiles and asks one teaspoon or two

don't trade us for tea and sympathy
don't trade us for tea and sympathy
we can work it out
don't trade us for tea and sympathy
don't trade us for tea and sympathy
we can work it out
we can work it out
