coffee stain

there's a coffee stain around your eye
and lines that I don't recognize
everything changed from being ok
the night that you came home so late

and I knew by the time on the stove
that you were no longer mine alone
I guess we're all just out on loan
and everybody is only their own

oh I loved you
and I guess I still do
everything was going so good I thought something bad might happen
and then it did
if you know the difference between bad and good
thought that i'd know
but I crossed my toes
and that's how it goes

well maybe I?m a fatalist
to let it all go at this
like some balloon i'll probably miss
lost in a treetop

but there's a coffee stain around your eye
and lines that I don't recognize
everything changed from being ok
the night that you came home so late

oh, I loved you
and I guess I still do
everything was going so good I thought something bad might happen
and then it did
if you know the difference between bad and good
thought that i'd know
but I crossed my toes
and that's how it goes
