I told myself no this ain't happenin'
All this time, oh still can't get over him
Then, someone helped heal
My wounds and fears
While I assisted him to resist
Neediness and injustice
I moved into where he worked
As he moved on to where I learned
But now that we've passed by
Does a connection lie
Between our parallel lives?
Is love an ever-curing bandaid
Or a domesticated liger that stands tall?
Or a movie that's funny but tear-stained
Or a caffeine high that never falls?
Well, even as just a best friend...
You're my Cup of Joe
Yes, it captured me by surprise
When one year's worth of bad love died
I moved into where he worked
As he moved on to where I learned
But now that we've passed by
Does a connection lie
Between our parallel lives?
Is love an ever-curing bandaid
Or a domesticated liger that stands tall?
Or a movie that's funny but tear-stained
Or a caffeine high that never falls?
Well, even as just a best friend...
You're my Cup of Joe
They say "love knows no bounds"
Is there a flaw in the law
When we're technically mutual rebounds?
Are we fenced in
Forever
By past love's sins
Will faith set us free
From our fears
Or will it never succeed?
No, true love...
It sways
Like the ocean waves
Oh, don't you ever change!
Don't add sugar, coffee, espresso, or cream
'Cause you are my Cup of Joe
More real than my dreams
