Tu Café

So many times I wanted to leave
So many times I stayed
In the dark of the night
With my soul feeling like paper

Your silences hurt me
Like screams without reason
But with every goodbye
My heart would give in
My heart

We were fire, we were wind
We were calm and storm
Now we barely talk
No questions, no tears

I no longer wait for butterflies
Just the dawn comes and goes
And the cup in your hands
It hurts more every day

We keep our I love yous like unopened letters
I don’t know if it’s love or fear of being without you
We got tired of trying, of pretending we’re okay
And still, every morning I make you
Your coffee

I lied to you and you lied to me
We hurt each other without thinking
But time doesn’t forgive
We’ve learned to let go

We’re the shadow of a us I can’t remember
I still wait for the day you answer: How’s it going?

We keep our I love yous like unopened letters
I don’t know if it’s love or fear of being without you
We got tired of trying, of pretending we’re okay
And still, every morning I make you
Your coffee

Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee
Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee
Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee
Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee

Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee
Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee
Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee
Your coffee, your coffee, your coffee

We keep our I love yous like unopened letters
I don’t know if it’s love or fear of being without you
We got tired of trying, of pretending we’re okay
And still, every morning I make you
Your coffee
