Cups of Coffee

Someday you will open your eyes
and see me for who I really am
for the ocean of tears
I've shed for this love
for the years I've spent in your arms
for all of the sacrifices I've made
and the truth in my eyes
that you never believe
for the part of me that is missing
when you're not with me
for the baby that we couldn't have
and it's ghost that still lives in me
and for my wish that one day we'll be ready
for the thousands of kisses and hugs
cups of coffee and cigarette talks
for all of those hours I've spent
in love with you
Just once you'll see me and know who I am
and how wrong you've been
and you'll say you'll never stop
loving me
