Midnight Coffee

The neon lights are fading on the street I watch the steam rise up and feel the heat You're staring at your phone and sipping slow I keep my secrets where the shadows go A tiny spoon is stirring in the cup I hold my breath and dare not to look up We talk about the rain and where you've been And keep the safest distance in between I'm pouring midnight coffee in the dark And trying not to let it leave a mark I'm translating my love tonight Into a language you might read aright I'm pouring midnight coffee cold and sweet To keep myself from falling at your feet I'm translating my heart to say The words I always hide and throw away A tiny spoon is stirring in the cup I hold my breath and dare not to look up We talk about the rain and where you've been And keep the safest distance in between I'm pouring midnight coffee in the dark And trying not to let it leave a mark I'm translating my love tonight Into a language you might read aright I'm pouring midnight coffee cold and sweet To keep myself from falling at your feet I'm translating my heart to say The words I always hide and throw away 本词创作灵感来自@pure-abab
