Tea for Two

I lay my head on your chest, there is only silence, empty of breath.

I ask if you would like some more tea and you couldn't help to agree.

I can't remember is it sugar or honey you prefer lovely ol' death.

Of course I remember now, but is it two lumps or three.

 

We chat for a while, a conversation filled with nothing but joy.

Lets dance I say, I will even follow your lead.

A few numbers pass, you dance quite well for such a young boy.

Whats that, it is finally time to sign my deed.

 

Oh of course how could I forget, time just slipped away.

I was having such a good time but now we must part.

We ride off into the eternal dark where the sun never stays.

Do not cry for I am much happier and alas at peace is my heart.
