lyrics
Your shoes have gone empty
and your bed's gone cold.
But I'm still wear'n your sweater
just to smell your cologne.
And the kettle still sings her song,
so sweet and I sing along
in hopes that this siren
will bring you home again.
But when the weather's right,
and the stars are bright,
I taste the tea we had that night.
You are my cup of tea,
my bitter sweet memory.
'Cause I have been waiting my whole life
for something that just felt right.
And you came along just singing my song,
making everything alright.
If I was a teapot,
I would shout,
top of my lungs and
let it all out.
But don't you see?
Don't you remember me?
You are my everything,
my cup of tea.
And I will drink you down
like river wine,
so fine.
So, just remind me and
come sit beside me.
Hold on tightly,
carefully.
'Cause I have been waiting my whole life
for something that just felt right.
And you came along just singing my song,
making everything alright.
It's never been like this before.
It's never been like this before.
They always say, well, never say never but
it's never been like this before.
But I, I am not alone.
No I, I am not alone.
But I, I am not alone.
And I never, never was alone.
