Coffee After Midnight (The Foxfire Trio) (Remastered)

[Intro] (rain against windows, soft electric piano) the waitress stopped asking if we wanted refills around 2am [Verse 1] you sat across from me under flickering light hands wrapped around a paper cup like a secret outside the city buzzed all cold and silver-blue but somehow that tiny booth felt warmer than my whole life and you kept smiling every time I went off topic like my scattered little constellations actually made sense to you [Pre-Chorus] we kept reheating the same coffee just to buy another hour [Chorus] coffee after midnight nervous hearts and tired eyes watching neon bleed together while the world forgot our names you laughed and I forgot how afraid I’d been lately for a little while exhaustion lost coffee after midnight holding light in shaking hands knowing caffeine only borrows time but staying anyway [Verse 2] the sky got lighter slowly behind the rain-streak glass and neither of us mentioned it like silence could stop dawn you told me things you probably tell nobody and I answered too honestly like sleep deprivation was truth serum your foot brushed mine under the table electric enough to wake the dead [Pre-Chorus] one more refill one more story one more reason not to leave [Chorus] coffee after midnight nervous hearts and tired eyes watching neon bleed together while the world forgot our names you laughed and I forgot how lonely I had gotten for a little while the static cleared coffee after midnight holding light in shaking hands knowing caffeine only borrows time but staying anyway [Bridge] soft city glow vinyl humming low your tired smile saying stay a little longer outside morning waited patient as heartbreak but inside the booth we were still infinite [Final Chorus] coffee after midnight two lost creatures keeping warm talking like the sunrise wasn’t already on its way and maybe nothing golden was ever built to last forever but for one sleepless night we were alive enough [Outro] (quiet trumpet, rain ambience) the waitress stacked the chairs while we sat there pretending not to notice the end of the night
