Stale Coffee by Matthew Mead Lyrics
Verse
I’ve been dreaming most of my life
I pictured two
Framed by you
So how long you been planning this heist?
In my name
Where is your shame?
I told you so
Nobody said it was easy
But the least you could do is try
Before you go…
Come back and clean up your mess
‘Cause you left these stains to dry
Chorus
Oh You …
Left a taste in my mouth
Just so I could find out
What its like
And you…
Probably figured by now
It would have washed right out
Through the night
But Stale coffee in the morning…
Keeps me up past dusk
Just to cover you up
’Til it fades
Stale coffee in the evening…
Makes me sleep past noon
Maybe half past two
Just to get past you
Verse
Darling i ain’t done with you yet
On my wall…
Your dress that fall
How long is this gonna stay on my breath?
A subtle clue
Notes of you
Just pour it slow
I know there’s hell to be paid…
Begging just one sip at a time
And so it goes
Oh honey drip by drip…
Salvation through this grind
Chorus
Oh You …
Left a taste in my mouth
Just so I could find out
What its like
And you…
Probably figured by now
It would have washed right out
Through the night
But Stale coffee in the morning…
Keeps me up past dusk
Just to cover you up
’Til it fades
Stale coffee in the evening…
Makes me sleep past noon
Maybe half past two
Just to get past you
Bridge
You can still come through the back door
I don’t mind
I’ll even leave it cracked for you
Just in time
For your storm to come blowing through
Stir me up
Just to get another hint of you
One more taste
Chorus
Oh its Stale coffee in the morning…
Keeps me up past dusk
Just to cover you up
’Til it fades
Stale coffee in the evening…
Makes me sleep past noon
Maybe half past two
Just to get past you
Stale coffee in the morning…
Keeps me up past dusk
Just to cover you up
’Til it fades
Stale coffee in the evening…
Makes me sleep past noon
Maybe half past two
Just to get past you
I’ve been dreaming most of my life
I pictured two
Framed by you
So how long you been planning this heist?
In my name
Where is your shame?
I told you so
Nobody said it was easy
But the least you could do is try
