One more cup of coffee
For the once more ease of mind
This bitter sip and bitter heart
Put my thoughts on rewind
I remember how I used to enjoy
An ever so sweet taste
Yet now I enjoy my coffee black like my heart
The old me was such a waste
I listen to the coffee pot groan
And let down a pattern of dark drips
I think why I like my coffee bitter
Is because of the taste you left on my lips
