Once as the Cape Fear River Was being overflowed with It's strange brew , a traditional mint The color of fallen brown tears A aroma of green tea over rice A particular unknown fragrance An Ancient river lacks Of other sweet scents erased The heart of the Hurricane is fading Yet you were once a women Just as you were once named after a man You were once a women Just as you wereΒ once named after a man You are a women just as you are a man Tea over rice A cup of tea The background of operatic wailings A chilling before the haunting chords A cup of tea for me
