Coffee Bean Dreams

Pour me a cup - hot and black

These days are rough, and winter is back

I used to wake up happy, mix it with sugar and cream,

In the days of my youth and my Coffee Bean Dreams

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to see me through that bad blind date

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to appease me driving to work really late

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to heal that late night out in the city lights

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to chat with friends and make everything all right

Now I take my poison, black and bold

No more blind dates, the world has turned cold

Work makes me tired, certain people make me scream

Now the the world is gray, when the night used to gleam

And my friends that used to know me are just parts of my - Coffee Bean Dreams...

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to see me through that bad blind date

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to appease me driving to work really late

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to heal that late night out in the city lights

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to chat with friends and make everything all right

I hope my Coffee Bean Dreams wake me up someday, take me back to a place where I can smile and I say:

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to see me through that bad blind date

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to appease me driving to work really late

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to heal that late night out in the city lights

(V) Coffee Bean Dreams to chat with friends and make everything all right

It's not just a morning a beverage, it's a way of life...
