| Ian Janis Between The Lines Tea & Sympathy I don't want to ride the milk train anymore I'll go to bed at nine and waken with the dawn And lunch at half past noon and dinner prompt at five The comfort of a few old friends long past their prime Pass the tea and sympathy for the good old days long gone We'll drink a toast to those who most believe in what they've won It's a long, long time 'til morning plays wasted on the dawn And I'll not write another line, for my true love is gone When the guests have gone, I'll tidy up the rooms And turn the covers down, and gazing at the moon Will pray to go quite mad and live in long ago When you and I were one, so very long ago Pass the tea and sympathy for the good old days long gone We'll drink a toast to those who most believe in what they've won It's a long, long time 'til morning plays wasted on the dawn And I'll not write another line, for my true love is gone When I have no dreams to give you anymore I'll light a blazing fire and wait within the door And throw my life away, "I wonder why?" they all will say And now I lay me down to sleep, forever and a day Pass the tea and sympathy, for the good old days are dead Let's drink a toast to those who best survived the life they've led It's a long, long time 'til morning, so build your fires high Now I lay me down to sleep, forever by your side |
