Woke up to your sweater hangin' on my chair Your scent still lingers in the morning air Two mugs on the table, one turned cold Just like the love we couldn't hold I poured the last drop, let the silence speak Your echo in the hallway still makes my knees weak Coffee and goodbyes, bittersweet and slow We said forever, but you had to go Now every sunrise just don't feel right Without your laughter in the morning light I still taste your lips in every cup I try That's the flavor of coffee and goodbyes The radio plays our song at half past ten And for a moment, I feel you again That old truck's still parked outside But the road we took just couldn't survive I hold on to a picture, it's worn and torn Of us in spring, before love got worn Coffee and goodbyes, bittersweet and slow We said forever, but you had to go Now every sunrise just don't feel right Without your laughter in the morning light I still taste your lips in every cup I try That's the flavor of coffee and goodbyes Maybe one day you'll walk back through that door We'll pour a fresh start, not spill love on the floor But till then, I'll sip the pain away With memories that won't fade Coffee and goodbyes, burned deep inside You took the cream, left the tears I hide Now I toast alone to the love we knew In a cup of black, thinking of you Yeah, some mornings I still cry For the taste of coffee, And goodbyes
