Lyrics Second Cup of Coffee - Gordon Lightfoot
I'm
on
my
second
cup
of
coffee
and
I
still
can't
face
the
day
I'm
thinkin'
of
the
lady
who
got
lost
along
the
way
And
if
I
don't
stop
this
tremblin'
hand
from
reachin'
for
the
phone
I'll
be
reachin'
for
the
bottle,
Lord,
before
this
day
is
done
I'm
on
my
second
cup
of
coffee
and
I
still
can't
face
the
day
The
room
was
filled
with
laughs
as
we
sang
the
night
away
But
my
sleep
was
filled
with
dreaming
of
the
wrongs
that
I
had
done
The
gentle
sweet
reminder
of
a
daughter
and
a
son
Sitting
alone,
my
friends
have
all
gone
home
You
never
know
when
they'll
come
droppin'
in
Thinking
of
girls
with
their
fingers
in
my
curls
Too
young
to
understand
how
love
begins
I'm
on
my
second
cup
of
coffee
and
I
still
can't
face
the
dawn
The
radio
is
playin'
a
soft
country
song
And
if
I
don't
stop
this
tremblin'
hand
from
reachin'
for
the
phone
I'll
be
reachin'
for
the
bottle,
Lord,
before
this
day
is
done
Sitting
alone,
my
friends
have
all
gone
home
They
never
were
around
when
I
needed
them
Thinking
of
girls
with
their
fingers
in
my
curls
Too
young
to
understand
how
love
begins
I'm
on
my
second
cup
of
coffee
and
I
still
can't
face
the
day
I'm
thinkin'
of
the
lady
who
got
lost
along
the
way
And
if
I
don't
stop
this
tremblin'
hand
from
reachin'
for
the
phone
I'll
be
reachin'
for
the
bottle,
Lord,
before
this
day
is
done
And
if
I
don't
stop
this
tremblin'
hand
from
reachin'
for
the
phone
I'll
be
reachin'
for
the
bottle,
Lord,
before
this
day
is
done
