Queen Of The High Teas Lyrics - Kirsty Maccoll

He's finding out life is never what it seems 

She's finding doubt is replacing all her dreams 

She's trying to pretend she's still in love just like before 

But when he goes away she doesn't miss him any more 

And it's too late to talk it over 

She can't wait now 

She's leaving anyhow 

She's getting bored now that life seems so routine 

Her head is filled with the places she ain't been 

Since he's been unemployed he's started drinking heavily 

They spend the night in silence watching rubbish on TV 

And it's too late to talk it over 

She can't wait now 

She's leaving anyhow 

They used to have some good times 

When they started out at first 

But that was fifteen years ago 

Now things keep getting worse 

And it's too late to talk it over 

She can't wait now 

She's leaving anyhow 

And it's too late to talk it over 

She can't wait now 

She's leaving anyhow 

Yes, it's too late to talk it over 

She can't wait now 

She's leaving anyhow
