Squeeze: Black Coffee In Bed

There's a stain on my notebook Where your coffee cup was And there's ash in the pages Now I've got myself lost I was writing to tell you That my feelings tonight Are a stain on my notebook That rings your goodbye Chorus: Now she's gone And I'm back on the beat A stain on my notebook Says nothing to me Now she's gone And I'm out with a friend With lips full of passion And coffee in bed With the way that you left me I can hardly contain The hurt and the anger And the joy of the pain Now knowing I am single They'll be fire in my eyes And a stain on my notebook For a new love tonight (Chorus) x 2 From the lips without passion To the lips with a kiss There's nothing of your love That I'll ever miss The stain on my notebook Remain all that's left Of the memory of late nights And coffee in bed (Chorus) Now she's gone And I'm back on the beat A stain on my notebook Says nothing to me Now she's gone And I'm back on the beat A stain on my notebook Says nothing to me Black coffee in bed (repeat to fade)
