I haven't thought about you for a while   It seems so far away   I keep your picture hidden in a file   Of favorite one act plays      Like pieces of myself, cut off in desperation   As offerings to thee   I keep them on a shelf, they're good for conversation   Over a cup of tea   A cup of tea      I put it all down in a letter once   A letter I don't send   It made me feel much better at the time   I thought it'd help me mend      The pieces of myself, cut off in desperation   As offerings to thee   I keep them on a shelf, they're good for conversation   Over a cup of tea   A cup of tea      Like pieces of myself, cut off in desperation   As offerings to thee   I keep them on a shelf, they're good for conversation   Over a cup of tea   A cup of tea
