Marble (Rowe/Fasulo)

The throat that burns
The throat that's soothed
The tea that heals
The cough removed

Water warm
Sugar sweet
A cup to hold
The tea to meet

Every time you fall
I'll be there
As long as I am here
You'll never spill
Every time you fall
I'll be there
As long as I am here
You'll never spill

The dry leaves to soak
The bag to strain
The contents bold
Surroundings plain

Submerged all alone
Slowly diffused
Does it aid?
Or is it refused?

Every time you fall
I'll be there
As long as I am here
You'll never spill
Every time you fall
I'll be there
As long as I am here
You'll never spill

The tea no longer dry
The water no longer clear
The sugar dilutes
The taste of a salty tear

Every time you fall
I'll be there
As long as I am here
You'll never spill
Every time you fall
I'll be there
As long as I am here
You'll never spill
