Cup Of Tea
Audiafauna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and your bed's gone cold.
But I'm still wear'n your sweater
just to smell your cologne.
And the kettle still sings her song,
so sweet and I sing along
in hopes that this siren
But when the weather's right,
and the stars are bright,
I taste the tea we had that night.
You are my cup of tea,
my bitter sweet memory.
'Cause I have been waiting my whole life
for something that just felt right.
And you came along just singing my song,
making everything alright.
If I was a teapot,
I would shout,
top of my lungs and
let it all out.
But don't you see?
Don't you remember me?
You are my everything,
my cup of tea.
And I will drink you down
like river wine,
so fine.
So, just remind me and
come sit beside me.
Hold on tightly,
carefully.
'Cause I have been waiting my whole life
for something that just felt right.
And you came along just singing my song,
making everything alright.
It's never been like this before.
It's never been like this before.
They always say, well, never say never but
it's never been like this before.
But I, I am not alone.
No I, I am not alone.
But I, I am not alone.
And I never, never was alone.
The song "Cup of Tea" by Audiafauna is a heartfelt expression of love and devotion. The opening verse immediately sets the scene of a lover who is missing their significant other, who is absent from both their bed and shoes. This absence is juxtaposed with the lingering scent of cologne on a sweater, and the familiar sound of a singing kettle. The singer looks to the siren-like call of the tea kettle as a symbol of hope that the missing lover will return home once again. The chorus reveals the deep affection the singer has for their partner, comparing them to a cup of tea, a comfort and soothing memory that they cherish deeply.
Throughout the song, the singer declares their willingness to wait for their lover, expressing the joy that they bring to their life. The bridge of the song is particularly poignant, with the singer reflecting on the fact that they have never felt this way before. However, they are not alone in their feelings as their partner is with them in spirit, even if they are not physically present. The final repetition of "I am not alone" reinforces this sentiment, and the song ends on a note of steadfast love and unbreakable connection.
