The Coffee Shoppe Around the Corner

The coffee shoppe around the corner
Brews a cup or two
A steady stream of friends and lovers
Then there's me and you

The coffee shoppe around the corner
Likes to play the tunes
Of sad and lonely star-crossed lovers
It creates a kind of mood

A tale that's as of yet untold
Or one that cannot be
All we'd hope would soon unfold
If we'd wait and see
I find we're stuck inside the in-between
A different point of view
It's safe to say that's me and you

The coffee shoppe around the corner
Where conversations cast a hue
Shadows on the wall show colors
It's giving me the blues

An atmosphere that gets me thinking
Of sapphire tides
That always yearn to glisten
When the light is right
They show a mystical reflection
To those who dare to gaze
I could stare into your eyes for days

Once again imagination runs away with me
I begin to watch the others
What might their stories read
Are they entangled in a romance
Is it something new?
Maybe it's nothing, much like me and you

The coffee shoppe around the corner
Brews a cup or two
A steady stream of friends and lovers
And then there's me...
And then there's you...
