Coffee At 2 AM

Coffee at two in the morning,

You said you couldn’t sleep,

I said, “Neither could I,”

Though I was counting sheep.

You talked about your childhood,

I talked about my fears,

Somewhere between the sugar bowl We lost track of the years.

Coffee at two in the morning,

You and me and an empty street,

Everybody else is dreaming,

We’ve got nowhere else to be.

Coffee at two in the morning,

Your hand resting next to mine,

Funny how the strangest hours Can become your favorite time.

You drew a little picture

On the back of your receipt,

It looked

nothing like a person.

(hmmm) But I kept it anyway.

Coffee at two in the morning,

You and me and an empty street,

Everybody else is dreaming,

We’ve got nowhere else to be.

Coffee at two in the morning,

Your hand resting next to mine,

Funny how the strangest hours Can become your favorite time.

Coffee at two in the morning,

Let the whole world sleep tonight,

I don’t need another reason To stay here by your side.
