Jayhawks - Five Cups of Coffee lyrics

rate me

(olsonlouris) gunflint music bmi

When I left here this morning

Just like before

You say nothing changes

Passing time around here

Stole a long string of pearls

And I pawned downtown

Gonna buy me some good fun

Back where no one can see

Chorus:

And the long black dream is over

As the snow falls on and on

And it takes five cups of coffee

To calm down before I sleep

Let the sky soak on my clothes

Way back in the alley

All of the red beads

Mixed up in her pew

Take the chance that I left you

Knowing where you might need me

So easy to believe

In someone I'd never see

(chorus)

(chorus)
