Ron Pope - In The Morning With The Coffee On Lyrics

There you were in Butte, Montana,
Big Sky angel on the run.
Then the mist off Allatoona,
Back in Georgia where you're from.
We were two birds on the water,
Swimming circles in the sun.
I have loved you since my bones were young.
Who knew what we'd become?

In the morning with the coffee on,
Before the baby wakes.
See you sitting there in silence oh
Just waiting on the day.
I'll cherish every single moment,
Cause one day we'll both be gone,
In the morning with the coffee on.

I stood trembling at the altar,
And my tears they ran so hot.
If I robbed a bank in Tucson,
You would fire the second shot.
I've been your partner in the sweetness,
I'll be your partner in the grave.
I have watched you like a sunset,
Glowing orange above the waves.

In the morning with the coffee on,
Before the baby wakes.
See you sitting there in silence oh
Just waiting on the day.
I'll cherish every single moment,
Cause one day we'll both be gone,
In the morning with the coffee on.

I get distant as a stranger,
Then blaspheme and supplicate.
I am sure it's hard to love me,
But you don't make it seem that way.

In the morning with the coffee on,
Before the baby wakes.
See you sitting there in silence oh
Just waiting on the day.
I'll cherish every single moment,
Cause one day we'll both be gone,
In the morning with the coffee on.
