Langhorne Slim - English Tea lyrics

rate me

What have I done?<br />

Have I lost my mind?<br />

I've preached on the cheaters<br />

That turn a blind eye this time<br />

And I get so lonely without you<br />

<br />

I love your curly blonde hair<br />

And I love the time that you take<br />

I love we're only together for this evening<br />

That ain't enough time for mistakes<br />

And I never feel lonely around you<br />

<br />

You take on mythical forms<br />

And you never seem to get bored<br />

You say 'I like some of your songs'<br />

And 'what's the harm'?<br />

The liquor over here's stronger<br />

I cannot stay very much longer<br />

I don't know where I belong<br />

But, sugar, it ain't in your arms<br />

<br />

Has your wristwatch been fixed?<br />

Has your compass been broke?<br />

You don't care what time it is<br />

You don't care where it is we go<br />

And I don't know nothing about you<br />

<br />

You take on mythical forms<br />

And you never seem to get bored<br />

You claim you like some of my songs<br />

So what's the harm?<br />

The liquor over here's stronger<br />

And I cannot stay very much longer<br />

I don't know where I belong<br />

But, child, it ain't in your arms

<br />
