Coffee Song

She came from the middle of nowhere A sleepy Pennsylvania town Her mother held her guilty for so long She finally put those burden’s down He spent his whole life on city fare His window played the evening sun It’s hard to believe for a strong man He sure was a lonely one She took the morning shift downtown Strange to be his favorite place After every single customer was cruel enough He was the only one to smile and say Thank you for the coffee A simple conversation Thank you for the light shining in your eyes It’s taken such a long time to find someone to talk to I know it ain’t much but thank you for your time It’s hard to find a kindred soul People are so unkind Little things can drive you crazy And stay locked away in your mind And so they say that….Frankie and Johnny were lovers Just like Romeo and Juliet Time never listens to fairy tales And so love had met the bitter end He went back to his city life Pennsylvania call her name You keep on living and trying to find Someone with the time to say Thank you for the coffee A simple conversation Thank you for the light shining in your eyes It’s taken such a long time to find someone to talk to I know it ain’t much but thank you for your time
