Breakfast With Chloe

She said she liked coffee
I lied said me too
I asked her to breakfast
She’d totally go

Her shoulders are confident
But hunch when she laughs
She earnestly gives me advice
I bask in the glow

And she wanted to occupy a space she don’t belong
Floating in the periphery, turn your head she’s gone

I caught a glimpse of your smile through some rift in spacetime
Two hands meet across the table but neither one is really mine

We’ve so much in common
It’s obvious
You want her to look at you
It’s daunting when she does

And she wanted to occupy a space she don’t belong
And I don’t call her up that much for fear she might respond

I caught a glimpse of your smile through some rift in spacetime
Two hands meet across the table but neither one is really mine

Conversation is limitless
Effervescent and effortless
Go from Galway to Bucharest
You put on her favorite dress and she’s gone

I caught a glimpse of your smile through some rift in spacetime
Two hands meet across the table but neither one is really mine
Neither one is really mine
