Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cold cup on the counter
Steam left a long time ago
Sun snuck through the curtain
Caught me talkin' to my shadow
[Chorus]
Got these midnight coffee blues
Stirring in an empty room
Every sip just tastes like you
And that slow
Slow sinking truth
Midnight coffee blues
[Verse 2]
Same chair
Same chipped table
Your ring mark in that old wood ring
I trace it like a record
Hope the silence might just sing
[Chorus]
Cold cup on the counter
Steam left a long time ago
Sun snuck through the curtain
Caught me talkin' to my shadow
[Chorus]
Got these midnight coffee blues
Stirring in an empty room
Every sip just tastes like you
And that slow
Slow sinking truth
Midnight coffee blues
[Verse 2]
Same chair
Same chipped table
Your ring mark in that old wood ring
I trace it like a record
Hope the silence might just sing
[Chorus]
Style of Music
Slow 12/8 blues with warm tube amp guitar, walking upright bass, lazy ride cymbal, and brushed snare. Male vocals, rough and intimate, sit right on the edge of the beat. Second guitar answers the vocal lines with bent notes and tasteful fills; organ swells in the choruses, subtle backing hums on the last one. Roomy mix like a small club at closing time., blues
