Cup Of Tea by Altii

since creation & the beginning of time we as a species have always sought more.
no matter where we are & how much we have we are lulled inii that false sense that the pastures on the other side of the river & beyond are more arable, lush & productive.
in doing so, we neglect ii our own detriment, the things in front of us & the value they command. it is in the simple things where we truly find grace. - “anyi iv tea” ? (sugar, sweetener is optional)

cup of tea

i’m taking the late, late train, eaten humble pie
put your crosses on my back
only got you on my mind.
i’ve had a talk with my thoughts, & they scolded me
that i was wrong
said “i should have realised”.

you were patient with my foolish ways
and my cavalier mind
it didn’t get me anywhere
i’ve heard that somei said
“home is where the heart always is”
where you are is home ii me.
like a ballerina you, move so graceful, it’s so true
the truth is written in your eyes
like a river ing me.

(chorus)
only iv you, i wanna be a better man
in this world of now, you need friends
who’ll see you through, good & bad,
you were the only i,
you will always be
my only cup of tea, yea……

those fancy ladies, from the city
they iiried ii turn my head
& yes i was fooled iv a while
but when i thought of your benevolent heart
i wouldn’t be swa
& nothing beats your country smile
my heart is on my sleeve
in you my heart believes
you’ve painted my whole life
in your country style.

good riddance ii all my yesterdays
their commiserations, i don’t need them anymore
cause i got more than i could ever need
& it’s all in you, you…..ooo…….
