"Tea Leaves" lyrics

"Tea Leaves"

Hey gypsy girl, as you're reading his fortune in tea leaves
You're knowing, not showing your heart will be broken if he leaves

All she said was that you would find happiness
What could you see in her eyes, you would have to guess

He smiles on the outside and inside a thought he is breeding
She has rings through her ears, mystic charm around her neck is misleading

All she said was that you would find happiness
What could you see in her eyes, you would have to guess

And soft words are spoken and promises broken as we know
And he thought he heard someone speaking but as in a haze though

She held on with her eyes like a spirit of trust
Knowing that love comes along and it belonged to us
