lyrics

Well I can't help but think about you, though my heart is wont to break
And when I poured myself a coffee, I made an extra one by mistake
I curse my lack of concentration, and the absent-mindedness that I scold
And now my cup is empty, and yours is going cold.

When I poured in the milk and the sugar, to my morning fix of caffeine
Well I was on automatic pilot, and I slipped back into the same ol' routine
My mind was miles away from the objective: oh, my cravings, for to quench
Now there's a drink without a drinker and a spare seat at the bench.

And I'll be sitting here all day pretending that you're here with me
And wishing for a way to turn daydreams into reality, now...

I can't help but think about you, though my heart is wont to break
And when I poured myself a coffee this morning, baby, I made an extra one, one for you, by mistake
And now the mug that you should be drinking is just one of three mugs in a row:
Along with the mug that I've just finished, and the mug who let you go.
