Tea For One
I'll wait no more for romance.
It isn't worth the price.
I'll sell my soul for no one,
despite the world's advice.
And you may think me lonely,
as I sit at tea for one,
but I wrap myself in satin,
and I cater now to none.
Sometimes I'll take a lover,
should I feel the need for spice,
but I'll give my key to no one
for Love rolls loaded dice.
And when the world winds down at last
and I decide that will suffice,
I'll sleep in peaceful silence,
my heart encased in ice....
It isn't worth the price.
I'll sell my soul for no one,
despite the world's advice.
And you may think me lonely,
as I sit at tea for one,
but I wrap myself in satin,
and I cater now to none.
Sometimes I'll take a lover,
should I feel the need for spice,
but I'll give my key to no one
for Love rolls loaded dice.
And when the world winds down at last
and I decide that will suffice,
I'll sleep in peaceful silence,
my heart encased in ice....
