about

Cold Coffee is a metaphor for good things gone bad.
Love interests often stay in our lives long after their expiration date.
This song describes my personal experience with letting go.

lyrics

I miss you, right after coffee
got this saddest ache of lust
for your temples and your tummy
turning mornings into dusk
and those
closet clothes with those, dresser drawers

Cuz the coffee's cold in the morning
the commute feels full of empty seats
faces drunk in love with finger-laces
troubled window watcher keep your paces
diamond ugly grin
beautiful you are not my friend
oh diamond ugly grin
beautiful you're not my friend

and every step that you take
you're where you are
your life's at peace
and from where you are
know I can see you there

la da da...

Cuz the coffee's cold in the morning
the commute feels full of empty seats
faces drunk in love with finger-laces
troubled window watcher keep your paces

Cuz baby wants to be the East coast to the West coast
she can't even swim though
just wants to watch wind blow though
make believe windows
make believe wind baby wants to be the East coast to the West coast
she can't even swim though
just wants to watch wind blow though
make believe windows
Make believe windows..

And every step that you take
you're where you are
your life's at peace
and from where you are
know I can see you, there

la da da...
Cuz the coffee's cold in the morning

Cuz baby wants to be the East coast to the West cost
she can't even swim though..
