Five Cups of Coffee
Coffee-Fueled Dreams: Unveiling Life's Changes
Lyrics
When I left you this morning
Expressing leaving in the morning
It's just like before
Highlighting the familiarity of the situation
You say nothing changes
Emphasizing the perception of no change
Passing time around here
Describing the passage of time
Stole a long string of pearls
Stealing pearls and pawning them as an action
And I pawned downtown
Describing pawning activity in the downtown area
Gonna buy me some good fun
Expressing a desire for enjoyable activities discreetly
Back where no one can see
Referencing privacy in one's actions
And the long black dream is over
Conveying the end of a dark or challenging period
As the snow falls on and on
Symbolizing a serene atmosphere with falling snow
And it takes five cups of coffee
Using coffee consumption as a metaphor for calming down
To calm down before I sleep
Highlighting the need for calmness before sleeping
Let the sky soak on my clothes
Imagery of the sky soaking into clothing
Way back in the alley
Referring to a distant or hidden place
All of the red beads
Depicting colorful beads mixed in a religious setting
Mixed up in her pew
Continuation of the mixed elements in a religious context
Take the chance that I left you
Encouraging someone to take a risk
Knowing where you might need me
Acknowledging a potential need for the speaker
So easy to believe
Expressing the simplicity of belief
In someone I'd never see
Believing in someone unseen or unknown
And the long black dream is over
Reiterating the end of a challenging period
As the snow falls on and on
Continuation of the serene atmosphere with falling snow
And it takes five cups of coffee
Repetition of using coffee as a calming agent
To calm down before I sleep
Emphasizing the importance of calmness before sleep
And the long black dream is over
Reaffirming the end of a challenging period
As the snow falls on and on
Continuation of a serene atmosphere with falling snow
And it takes five cups of coffee
Repetition of using coffee for calming purposes
To calm down before I sleep
Stressing the significance of calmness before sleep
