From the recording Cold coffee & broken promises
Lyrics
[Intro]
The sun creeps in, but the warmth doesn't follow,
Cold coffee in my hand, echoes from tomorrow.
[Verse 1]
Sitting in this diner, the clock ticks on slow,
Memories like shadows, flicker to and fro.
Half-empty cups and echoes of your laugh,
Every sip I take, it’s just a photograph.
[Pre-Chorus]
You said forever, painted skies in my name,
But now it’s just whispers, and I’m feeling the shame.
Promises hang heavy, like smoke in the air,
You’re gone in the silence, but I still hear you there.
[Chorus]
Cold coffee and broken promises, love’s refrain,
The taste of your memory, sweet yet filled with pain.
I hold on to the echoes that fade with the night,
Cold coffee and broken promises, where did we lose the light?
[Verse 2]
So many late nights, lost in our dreams,
Now I’m chasing shadows, unraveling seams.
Thought we had a story, a dance in the rain,
But the notes we once sang now feel full of disdain.
[Pre-Chorus]
You said you’d always be the flame when I’m dark,
But the embers are fading, can’t find my spark.
You left me with silence, it cuts like a knife,
Now I’m here sipping memories, grappling with life.
[Chorus]
Cold coffee and broken promises, love’s refrain,
The taste of your memory, sweet yet filled with pain.
I hold on to the echoes that fade with the night,
Cold coffee and broken promises, where did we lose the light?
[Bridge]
Maybe I’ll find you in a smoky bar down the way,
Trading stories and laughter, clouding yesterday.
But the truth tugs gently, it's heavy and true,
Cold coffee in the sunlight can’t warm me like you.
[Chorus]
Cold coffee and broken promises, love’s refrain,
The taste of your memory, sweet yet filled with pain.
I hold on to the echoes that fade with the night,
Cold coffee and broken promises, where did we lose the light?
[Outro]
I sip on this cold coffee, my heart still aches,
With every drop that falls, it’s your love that breaks.
Cold coffee and broken promises, a bittersweet song,
Echoing through this diner, where everything feels wrong.
