Coffee Morning Lyrics

Birch Book Coffee Morning

Coffee morning (coffee morning)
Your dreams slip away (coffee morning)
Into fanciful tales of yesteryear
And just the other day
The pleasures you stole the night before
They still linger in your head

Coffee morning (coffee morning)
Your heads in a swoon (coffee morning)
Your thoughts would seem null as the steam
Null as the dew upon your spoon
Out awnings and leaves, through windows and trees
Comes the day's noon

Coffee morning (coffee morning)
Smooth your wrinkled brow (coffee morning)
Recall the whimsical name of a fleeting game
That led you on to ignore
The wings that she had when giddy and glad
And her nimbus glow

What was it like hung in midflight caught on a full moon's glare?
The time you're here on gilded tears, the words you wished you'd shared

Coffee morning (coffee morning)
Your coming unsung (coffee morning)
Over that faraway girl
With her heart in her eyes
Her thoughts you'd like to know
About their colors and roots
Refined or crude
But you're alone and so you
Brew (coffee morning)
