Tea Shop

[Verse 1]
The first time I walked in, it was raining
I closed my umbrella and I looked inside
The first time I walked in, there was no speaking
I walked to the counter and I ordered Chai

My heels went “clickity-clack” on the floorboards
Sitting at the table at the back, you were so bored
I wonder what you were thinking
I wonder what you thought of me
My tear stains all over the sweater that I got you
Wearing it now, it could never be brand new
I wonder what you wеre thinking that day

[Chorus]
Remembеr when you told me I was pretty?
I was pretty
I was pretty
What a pity
What a pity that you’re gone
You’re gone
Remember when we sat here?
We were sitting
We were sitting at the table by the window
I closed my eyes and now I’m all alone
Earl Grey in my hands you’ll never know

[Verse 2]
The second time I walked in, you were waving
I skipped on over and I smiled wide
We talked on forever
And you held both my hands as the sunlight glittered in the room

The clock went “clickity-clack” on the mint wall
Sitting at the table at the back, you were so dumb
I wonder what you were thinking, looking over at me
My lipstick all over the rim of the mug
I remember your laugh and I remember you crying
You crying

[Chorus]
Remember when you told me I was pretty?
I was pretty
I was pretty
What a pity
What a pity that you’re gone
You’re gone
Remember when we sat here?
We were sitting
We were sitting at the table by the window
I closed my eyes and now I’m all alone
Earl Grey in my hands you’ll never know

[Bridge]
Drop the sugar cube into what’s left of the sweet ghost of you, my love
My love
My love
My love
My love
Drowning in the mess I made tastes better than pink lemonade, my love
My love
My love
My love
My love

[Verse 3]
The last time I walked in, it was snowing
I skipped my order and I held my breath
And it felt so funny, to be alone like that
Sitting at the empty table made for two

[Chorus]
Remember when you told me I was pretty?
I was pretty
I was pretty
What a pity
What a pity that you’re gone
You’re gone
Remember when we sat here?
We were sitting
We were sitting at the table by the window
I closed my eyes and now I’m all alone
Earl Grey in my hands you’ll never know

[Bridge]
Drop the sugar cube into what’s left of the sweet ghost of you, my love
My love
My love
My love
My love
Drowning in the mess I made tastes better than pink lemonade, my love
My love
My love
My love
My love
