Bic Runga – One More Cup Of Coffee lyrics

Your breath is sweet
Your eyes are like, two jewels in the sky
Your back is straight
Your hair is smooth, on the pillow where you lie
But I don't sense affection
No gratitude or love
Your loyality is not to me
But to the stars above

One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee for I go
To the valley below

Your daddy he's an outlaw and a wanderer by trade
He'll teach you how to pick and choose
And how to throw the blade
He oversees his kingdom
So no stranger does intrude
His voice it trembles as he calls out for another plate of food

Chorus:

Your sister sees the future
Like your momma and yourself
You never learn't to read or write
There's no books upon the shelf
And your pleasure knows no limits
Your voice is like a meadow larks
And you heart is like the ocean
Mysterious and dark

Chorus:
