Downtown Coffeeshops

Scotty McCarty
My sheets always smell like you.
It’s like I’ve been sleeping in a garden.
Every morning I feel more alive.
You just always taste so sweet.
I met you in a downtown coffee shop.
Two drinks, conversations about you.
After a while, I didn’t know what to say.
So we just drove until we whisked the day away.
We met twice a week till’ June.
After a while, things just clicked.
Soon enough we were always together.
I fell more in love the more you’d speak.
I met you in a downtown coffee shop.
Two drinks, conversations about you.
After a while, I didn’t know what to say.
So we just drove until we whisked the day away.
Every morning now, we stop for a drink.
And I think back to when I first saw your eyes.
After three years, you’d think I had enough.
But coffee just tasted so right with your hand in mine.
