[Verse 1]
Miss black woke her up
As the dawn was breaking
Tried to go back to sleep
But her heart is still aching
Took a sip of leftover tea
Thought about a new reality, yeah

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
He's gone and she's here
I think she cried a thousand tears
It's been over a year
And he made it ever so clear

[Chorus]
Took a sip of leftover tea
Thought about a new reality
He's in her children's faces
He's in her heart and soul
There's got to be a reason for this
When the story's all been told

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
He wants, he wants it all
The new passion included
It's so hard for her now
To be the one excluded

[Chorus]
Take a sip of leftover tea
Think about a new reality
He's in her children's faces
He's in her heart and soul
There's got to be a reason for this
When the story's all been told
He's in her children's faces
He's in her heart and soul
There's got to be a reason for this
When the story's all been told

[Outro]
