[Spoken Intro] Morning, darling... cream, or honesty? (hehe) Pour it slow. [Verse 1] Steam curls up like a question I already know the answer to. Cup on the saucer. Warm hands. Soft voice. I'm so calm today. I'm so gentle, I swear. (So calm. So gentle.) Third sip and everything tastes like sugar. [Pre-Chorus] But something in the pot sits up when I refill. The kettle hums the note I hum when I have plans. Hmm... (mmm) [Chorus] One cup for the lady, one cup for the thing. One voice sings you goodnight, one voice writes it down. I'm sweet till the second pour... then I'm something else. One cup for the lady, one cup for the thing. [Verse 2] Cup one, I'll fix your hair, I'll write you a pretty song. Cup two, I know the second you decided to lie. I don't blink when you'd expect it. Remember that. I just... refill. (hehe) [Bridge] It was never two people. Same hands. Same kitchen. Same mug. Same mouth. One girl, and a warmer voice, and the warmer one is quieter. [Chorus] One cup for the lady, one cup for the thing. One of us says goodnight, one of us stays listening. I'm sweet till the second pour... and then, sweet thing, I'm not. One cup for the lady, one cup for the thing. [Outro] Dishes in the sink. The show comes back on. Same smile. Exactly where it was. You're still there, right? More coffee...?
