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 |
