lyrics

I always call you on a Sunday
Hoping you'll look my way
I like to watch you sip your coffee
Seeing things that only lovers see

If I were to swallow my pride
I'd choke on bitter grounds
If I were to stand by my side
I'd hate me around

I always sit and brew your latte
Following every word you say
I like to pour out for us two
Filtering so it's me and you

If I were to swallow my pride
I'd choke on bitter grounds
If I were to stand by my side
I'd hate me around

I always wipe away your lipstick
When I wash the mugs and dishes
I like to splash you with the water
Let your wave take me over

Coffee pot, coffee pot
And caffeine love, caffeine love
That's all I've got, all I've got
To give you, baby

Spill a drop on me, baby
Spill a drop right on me
Spill a drop on me, baby
Spill a drop right on me
