Gods, I'm explaining the lyrics of Cold Tea Blues to someone over email.
It hurts.
Cold Tea Blues by the Cowboy Junkies
If I pour your cup, that is friendship
If I add your milk, that is manners
If I stop there, claiming ignorance of taste,
That is tea
But if I measure the sugar
To satisfy your expectant tongue
Then that is love,
But if I measure the sugar
To satisfy your expectant tongue
Then that is love,
Sitting untouched and growing cold
It hurts.

To satisfy your expectant tongue

Sitting untouched and growing cold
