Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Sunlight through the lace curtain falls Dust motes dance in golden halls This worn-out table, scarred and old Stories whispered, brave and bold The air is thick with roasted bean A silent, peaceful, waking dream [Pre-Chorus] I trace the rim, a steady hand Lost in a memory, unplanned A gentle hum, a distant chime Slipping back through space and time [Chorus] And the coffee's warm, the rain outside Where did our laughter go to hide? Like autumn leaves, we drifted far Beneath a fading, lonely star But here I sit, and I can see The river flowed away from me [Verse] Remember nights, the open road Sharing secrets, a lighter load Your hand in mine, a perfect fit Moments I can't quite forget The quiet comfort, soft and low Where did that easy feeling go? [Pre-Chorus] I stir my cup, a swirling brown Watching shadows settle down A bittersweet and tender ache For goodness gracious, for goodness sake [Chorus] And the coffee's warm, the rain outside Where did our laughter go to hide? Like autumn leaves, we drifted far Beneath a fading, lonely star But here I sit, and I can see The river flowed away from me [Bridge] It wasn't meant to be that way Some flowers bloom, then fade away A season passed, a gentle turn Lessons that we have to learn No blame, no fault, no angry word Just silent truths that went unheard [Verse] The barista smiles, a fleeting glance Pulling me back from this trance This cozy space, a warm embrace Finding peace in time and place The bitter and the sweet combine This quiet moment, truly mine [Chorus] And the coffee's warm, the rain outside Where did our laughter go to hide? Like autumn leaves, we drifted far Beneath a fading, lonely star But here I sit, and I can see The river flowed away from me [Outro]
