| fare thee well | |
| trade in all our words for tea and sympathy | |
| wonder why we tried, for things that could never be | |
| play our hearts 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 | |
| seem to be playing out of tune | |
| but it's not the way | |
| that it has to be | |
| don't trade our love for tea and sympathy | |
| 'cause it's not the way | |
| that it has to be | |
| you begin | |
| and 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 and slowly drink in | |
| CHORUS: | |
| 'cause it's not the way | |
| that it has to be | |
| don't trade our love for tea and sympathy | |
| 'cause it's not the way | |
| that it has to be | |
| don't trade our love for tea and sympathy | |
| so fare thee well | |
| words the bag of leaves that fill my head | |
| i could taste the bitterness and call the waitress instead | |
| 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 | |
| don't trade us for tea and sympathy | |
| we can work it out |
