The Who~ "Tea and Theatre"

~

I love my 'WHO'...

When we saw The Who in concert on their 'Endless Wire' tour of 2006-2007,

(my one and only time for seeing The Who in concert)

I found this song incredibly sad but beautiful. It sounded like a goodbye ... an ending... I suppose it may be that but am hoping it will not be a quick ending!

You see, I discovered 'The Who' late in my life...have been, frantically, playing catch-up the past few years. I never grow tired of my WHO music-and with each listen it seems fresh and new to me...from the Woodstock videos...to this 'Endless Wire' tour and everything in between!

In a way I feel lucky that I have just recently 'found' this music
  (much thanks to my friend)
because I still have lots to explore at a time in my life when I need something...but in another way I feel cheated that I didn't know the music all through the years!  :)

Hope Pete and Roger never quit!!

Tea and Theatre 

Lyrics

Artist(Band):The Who

Will you have some tea

After theatre with me?

We did it all - didn't we?

Jumped every wall - instinctively

Unravelled codes - ingeniously

Wired all the roads - so seamlessly

We made it work

But one of us failed

That makes it so sad

A great dream derailed

One of us gone

One of us mad

One of us, me

All of us sad

All of us sad - lean on my shoulder now

The story is done - it's getting colder now

A thousand songs - still smoulder now

We played them as one - we're older now

All of us sad

All of us free

Before we walk from the stage

Two of us

Will you have some tea?

Will you have some tea

At the theatre with me?

Love,

Junie
