Coffee and Courage

(Verse 1) Didn’t sleep much last night, Pain kept whisperin’ low, But I stayed a little longer In the warmth before the cold day’s glow. Got a late start on the morning, But I’m rising anyway, With a heart that’s bruised but steady, And a will that won’t give way. (Chorus) So pour me coffee, strong and warm, Let it carry me through the storm. I’m movin’ slow, but I’m movin’ still, With a quiet fire and a stubborn will. Yeah, I’m walkin’ through the ache today, But I’ll get my work done anyway. There’s a little spark beneath the strain— A gentle hope that outshines pain. (Verse 2) Yesterday slipped through my fingers, Didn’t go the way I planned, But I’m learnin’ that the victories Aren’t always loud or grand. Sometimes just keepin’ goin’ Is the bravest thing you do, And I’m holdin’ onto that truth now, As the morning breaks in blue. (Chorus) So pour me coffee, strong and warm, Let it carry me through the storm. I’m movin’ slow, but I’m movin’ still, With a quiet fire and a stubborn will. Yeah, I’m walkin’ through the ache today, But I’ll get my work done anyway. There’s a little spark beneath the strain— A gentle hope that outshines pain. (Bridge) Maybe later in the sunlight, A softer glow will start to rise, A shimmer in the weary, A little starlight in my eyes. But for now I’m standing steady, Even if the day feels long— And there’s beauty in the trying, There’s a triumph in this song. (Final Chorus) So pour me coffee, strong and warm, Let it carry me through the storm. I’m movin’ slow, but I’m movin’ still, With a quiet fire and a stubborn will. Yeah, I’m walkin’ through the ache today, But I’ll get my work done anyway. There’s a little spark beneath the strain— A gentle hope that outshines pain. [Instrumental Outro]
