Midnight Coffee Cup

[Verse 1]
You left your sweater on my chair
Smells like jasmine
Smoke
And rain
Sink full of dishes
Quiet air
TV talking to the pain
[Chorus]
So I pour another midnight coffee cup
Waiting on a text that never shows up
Staring at the door like it might wake up
You said you’d stay
Then you packed it up
Now every little thing just feels made up
Midnight coffee cup
Can’t fill it enough
[Verse 2]
Your lipstick print on my old mug
Faded like that last goodbye
Radio humming out of tune
I keep asking empty rooms why
[Chorus]
So I pour another midnight coffee cup
Waiting on a text that never shows up
Staring at the door like it might wake up
You said you’d stay
Then you packed it up
Now every little thing just feels made up
Midnight coffee cup
Can’t fill it enough
[Bridge]
I keep saying I’m alright (I’m fine)
But my hands still shake your name
Every sip is one more try
To taste you back again
[Chorus]
So I pour another midnight coffee cup
Waiting on a text that never shows up
Staring at the door like it might wake up
You said you’d stay
Then you packed it up
Now every little thing just feels made up
Midnight coffee cup
Can’t fill it enough

Smoky R&B-blues hybrid over lazy swung drums, warm Rhodes piano, and a slow-walking bass line. Male vocals with a worn, intimate tone; verses stay close and conversational, chorus blooms with stacked harmonies and gentle organ swells. Guitar answers vocal phrases with tasteful bends, and a late-song dynamic lift adds grit and urgency before settling back down., blues
