Coffee, Tea and Sympathy
Sing Along!
I'm not one to bother
with sentimental matters
that's not my style
It's been good to see
but I have no feelings for you
anymore
Yeah you know there was a time
When my light would make you shine
But that was long ago
and your heart felt the need to carry on
People tell me I'm pleasant these days
and I do try to smile and laugh alot
I've moved down the coast
to where folks swap martinis
as they watch the sun come up
It's a lonely, crazy town
everyone's so up
it's getting me down
I make the best of it
'else go mad
from the vapidity of it all
Chorus: So what did you expect from me
Coffee Tea and Sympathy
You think I'd just come running back
the way you set me free
You were so selfless (3x)
The way you left me to die
drowning in my own private hell
My self-esteem is better it seems
since I've been out here, on my own
I still fight with my demons
but I'm out on top more often
every time
No, we were never meant to work out
Typical of what my life's about
We go through this world alone
and we leave it the same way
Chorus
Thanks for meeting me today
I had time to kill
'fore my flight takes off
If you were disappointed
I don't know what to tell you
I'm already passed blown up
If I gave myself a chance to
A part of me really misses you too
Don't bother paying
I've got the whole thing covered this time
No it's nothing
It's really nothing...
I'm not one to bother
with sentimental matters
that's not my style
It's been good to see
but I have no feelings for you
anymore
Yeah you know there was a time
When my light would make you shine
But that was long ago
and your heart felt the need to carry on
People tell me I'm pleasant these days
and I do try to smile and laugh alot

as they watch the sun come up
