Morning Coffee Blue

Steam is rising from a quiet cup The city slowly waking up I stir the sugar watch it spin Like little thoughts I keep within The radio hums a lazy tune A sleepy light across the room And for no reason I can find I feel completely out of time Nothing urgent nothing new Just this moment passing through Morning coffee soft and blue I don't need to run from you Let the day unfold so slow Like a song I already know Morning coffee stay a while Teach me how to breathe and smile In the space between the noise I can hear my quieter voice Outside the world is moving fast But I'm not part of it just yet I trace the window with my hand Like I'm writing on the glass Every shadow feels like jazz Improvised and fading fast Even silence has a groove That only morning knows how to move Maybe life is less about Rushing in and rushing out Morning coffee soft and blue I don't need to run from you Let the day unfold so slow Like a song I already know Morning coffee stay a while Teach me how to breathe and smile In the space between the noise I can hear my quieter voice No grand answers in the air Just the comfort of I'm here And the world for once agrees To move in easier degrees Morning coffee warm and low Let the gentle moments flow I don't need to be anywhere Except right here right here Morning coffee hold the day In your soft and simple way Let it start and let it be Nothing more is needed of me
