There's a possum in the tea
There's a possum in the tea
All that I had was all I'm gon' get

There's a possum in the tea
There's a possum in the tea
All I gon' get is gon' be yours then
All I gon' get is gon' be yours still

So tell me when you hear my heart stop
You're the only one that knows
Tell me when you hear my silence
There's a possum in the tea I wouldn't know

Know that when you leave
Know that when you leave
By blood and by me you walk like a thief
By blood and by me, and I fall when you leave

So tell me when you hear my heart stop
You're the only one that knows
Tell me when you hear my silence
There's a possum in the tea I wouldn't know

So tell me when my sigh's over
You're the reason why I'm closed
Tell me when you hear me fallin'
There's a possum in the tea it wouldn't show
By blood and by me, and I'll fall when you leave
By blood and by me, I follow your lead
