COFFEE
Written, performed, produced, recorded, mixed & mastered by Shayla McDaniel
You’ve got problems, I’ve got coffee
Drink deep and breathe the steam
I’ll take your hand; I won’t let go
’Til you awake from this bad dream
Hair like waves in the ocean
Caring eyes just as blue
Spirit brighter than the sun
Spreading love and truth
Wise heart so discerning
Before you think to open your mouth
She knows you’re hurting
She asks if you want to pray about it
She says
You’ve got problems, I’ve got coffee
Drink deep and breathe the steam
I’ll take your hand I won’t let go
’Til you awake from this bad dream
She knows she ain’t got all the answers
Standing about 5’2
Reads from the book that’s taken her heart
And with love she speaks the truth
Has a strong, gentle old soul
But 23 years, that’s a young life
Floated south on the sea foam
From upstate N.Y.
But she can’t walk on water
Sure can’t turn it into wine
She’ll offer a kind shoulder
A listening ear and sacrificed time
She says
You’ve got problems, I’ve got coffee
Drink deep and breathe the steam
I’ll take your hand I won’t let go
’Til you awake from this bad dream
