Sertab Erener

one More Cup Of Coffee

Sertab Erener


Your breath is sweet, your eyes are like 
Two jewels in the sky 
Your back is straight your hair is smooth 
On the pillow where you lie. 
But I don't sense affection 
No gratitude or love. 
Your loyalty is not me but to the stars above 

Chourus : 
One more cup of coffee for the road. 
One more cup of coffee for I go, 
To the valley below. 

Your daddy he's an outlaw 
And a wanderer by trade. 
He'll teach you how to pick an choose 
And how to throw the blade. 
And he oversees his kingdom 
So no stranger does intrude. 
His voice it trembles as he calls out 
For another plate of food 

Chorus 

Your sister sees the future 
Like your momma and yourself. 
You've never learned to read or write 
There's no books upon your shelf. 
And your pleasure know no limits 
Your voice is like a meadow larks. 
But your heart is like an ocean 
Mysterious and dark. 

Chorus
