lyrics

Come for coffee, stay for me
get it while it's hot
Seize the possibility
get it while it's hot
I'm my own best enemy
get it while it's hot
Dark eyes follow me
get it while it's hot

Open up the skies for my polka dot parade
she grips sunken ships in her hands
Lying in the sun
it's cold in the shade
Hiding behind words
it's a sham

Come for coffee, stay for me
get it while it's hot
Seize the possibility
get it while it's hot

You can see it there on every word I wrote
I'm a little kid in a big coat

Open up the skies for my polka dot parade
she grips sunken ships in her hands
Lying in the sun
it's cold in the shade
Hiding behind words
it's a sham

Back and forth on the swinging tire
we don't get bored and we don't get tired
let's go higher

Come on over to my house
this self-imposed exile I'm living out
Paralyzed

Come for coffee and stay for me
I'd love to darling but can't you see?
it's a fight

On a summer holiday
those deadline feelings don't go away
it's alright

She asked me if I wanted coffee
with widened eyes
and I said "no"
and I don't know why
I lied
