[Verse 1] Steam faded from the cup by the window Like another hour slipped from my hands Your favorite chair still faces mine Like I asked it to, like I planned The little café knows my order They smile but never say your name I learned hope wears a disguise And patience feels the same [Pre-Chorus] Every time that door swings open My heart forgets what it knows Still I look Still I hope [Chorus] The coffee gets cold But I save your seat Time keeps moving on While my heart skips beats Every little promise Keeps ringing in my mind The coffee gets cold But I still believe you'll arrive (The coffee gets cold) [Verse 2] Outside, the city keeps its stories People coming, people gone I’m somewhere between let go And hold on Your laugh still lives inside these walls Like a note that won’t fade out Some loves leave without a sound Some stay around [Pre-Chorus] I could walk away now But something keeps me here Maybe love is not waiting Maybe love is here [Chorus] The coffee gets cold But I save your seat Time keeps moving on While my heart skips beats Every little promise Keeps ringing in my mind The coffee gets cold But I still believe you'll arrive (The coffee gets cold) [Bridge] If tomorrow says goodbye I’ll survive somehow But if you walk in tonight It all makes sense now Every lonely hour Every empty chair Turns to something tender If you’re standing there [Final Chorus] The coffee gets cold But my heart stays warm Some dreams are patient Even through the storm I keep one light burning Till the night runs thin The coffee gets cold But my love doesn’t end The coffee gets cold I’m still waiting for you (The coffee gets cold) (I’m still waiting for you)
