Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I boiled the water, set the cup
The mint was fresh, the curtains up
I left a seat across from me
But you were chasing something else again
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I was just a quiet scene
In a movie playing in your dreams
A background hum, a gentle breeze
That never made you freeze
[Chorus]
You drink your time like wine, so free
But never once had time for tea
With me, just me, the silent guest
Not even worth your second best
So I sip this mint tea all alone
For someone who was never home
[Verse 2]
You said we clicked, you liked my mind
But always somewhere else in time
I watched you glow in other lives
While I stayed here, just out of sight
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I was just a hallway light
You passed beneath, but never right
A flicker in a crowded day
You never meant to stay
[Chorus]
You drink your time like wine, so free
But never once had time for tea
With me, just me, the silent guest
Not even worth your second best
So I sip this mint tea all alone
For someone who was never home
[Bridge]
Was I a ghost you almost knew?
A half-formed shape in morning dew?
You smiled and said, "You're always there"
But left me breathing empty air
[Final Chorus]
You drink your time like wine, carefree
But never once had time for we
Just me, still me, no longer blind
You never meant to make me mine
So I pour the last drop, let it go
Mint tea – for someone I'll outgrow
