Coffee

It was November when I first saw you
Standing in the queue for the bathroom
Didn't even notice me but I thought I knew you

Always thought I knew you
Never really did
You were so vague back then

Something I should try to pretend
Not to be absorbed by you
Where are you now?
Do you still sing?

'Cause I used to buy coffee just to watch you
Working the machine
Hands beneath the steam
Are you happy to be gone?

It was December when we first spoke
Blowing joke I don't
Beard at my throat
February, the high before a show

Fold up my lies
Try to take you home
'Cause you were so sweet
And I thought that I should try to pretend I could be sweet too

Was I sweet to you?
Where are you now?
Do you still sing?
'Cause I used to buy coffee
Just to watch you working the machine

Hands beneath the steam
Are you happy to be gone?
Is that what you want?
Is that what you want?

She just wants to be alone
I walk free to keep her warm
She just wants to be alone
I walk free to keep her warm, warm

But she is looking for no one
Always home cause she is her own
Working the machines
Hands beneath the steam
Are you happy?
