    Coffee

         One word titles. Easy to remember. The name of this song is coffee. The song is really not about coffee. It is really about love. The chorus says, Love's a cup of coffee, drink a cup or drink a pot. It's best fresh and hot. I guess that line is describing how great love feels at the beginning of a new relationship. The next line in the chorus is  Coffee, coffee.coffee, it's all I drink about. Isn't it amazing how much we think about love when we first find it. The last line of the chorus is When it turns cold, she'll just pour it out. Wasted love. Well the relationship didn't work out. It must of been bad coffee. Just a few comments about the chorus. Here are the lyrics and the twist at the end. 

    Coffee 

    She said, Let's meet for coffee 

     the diner down on sixth street 

     Ill be in a corner booth 

     we need to talk 

    She asked, When I could be there 

     said, be there 4:15 

    She's got plans for tomorrow,  

    plans to leave me. 

     

     Oh, Love's a cup of coffee. 

    drink a cup, drink a pot 

    It gives me a buzz 

    its best, fresh and hot 

    Coffee, coffee, coffee 

    It's all I drink about 

    but after it turns cold 

    she'll just pour it out  

     

    I'll  miss you in the morning 

    making noises in the kitchen 

    The smell of your perfume ain't 

    floating down the hall 

    Daybreak will be diff'rent 

    without you and hazelnut 

    I won't change how much I make 

    cause change is  tough 

     

    Chorus Oh, Love's a cup of coffee 

    drink a cup, drink a pot 

    It gives me a buzz 

    It's best, fresh and hot 

    Coffee, coffee, coffee 

    it's all I drink about 

    after it turns cold 

    I'll just pour it out.

      

    I could stretch myself, like a rubber band 

    and maybe, someday, give love a second chance 

     

    Oh, Love's  cup of coffee 

    drink a cup, or drink a pot 

    It gives me a buzz,  

    It's best, fresh and hot 

    Coffee, coffee, coffee 

    I can't get enough 

    If it turns cold,  

    I'll just heat it up. 

    If it turns cold, 

    I'll just heat it up.
