Coffee Time For Two
The cups are on the table
As the coffee starts to brew
Two flowers in the middle
Now all I need is you
.
You called me up this morning
Said you'd be stopping by
My heart started racing
I really don't know why
.
I guess I'm just excited
To share this time with you
I can think of nothing better
Than gazing in your eyes of blue
.
It's been almost an hour now
Since you were on the way
Wish that you would call me
So my mind won't start to stray
.
Our coffee time's so special
It's where our love began
So many words where spoken
As our future we did plan
.
Now it's been two hours
Still no knock upon my door
I'm feeling a kind of emptiness
As my "second cup" I pour
.
I sit and watch the clock hands
As the hours pass me by
Even the petals on the flowers
Seem so sad they start to cry
.
My cup is now half empty
Your cup is barren and it's cold
I feel a familiar feeling
There's a coldness starting to unfold
.
We've tried so many times
Perhaps this time is our last
Maybe thinking of our future
Is just something in our past
Though the petals have all fallen
I'll keep the table set for two
For our coffee time is "special"
It's when I fell in love with you
