Coffee & Cigarettes

Late in the afternoon at two
A little after brunch with you
I ask for a cup of coffee
Then I ask you for the light

One sip takes me there
One sip takes me here
I let go of me then, mm
And I let me stay here

I'm not asking for much
I just feel out of touch
I know it wouldn't solve nothing
At least I'll feel something

One sip takes me there
One sip takes me here
I let go of me then, mm
And I let me stay here

The air, the smoke
The sound it burns
And warms my throat and mind
The taste, the heat
The room it paints
And home it brings my heart

The air, the smoke
The sound it burns
And warms my throat and mind
The taste, the heat
The room it paints
And home it brings my heart

One sip takes me there
One sip takes me here
I let go of me then, mm
And I let me stay here

One sip takes me there
One sip takes me here
I let go of me then, mm
And I let me stay here

Let me stay here
