Coffee Shops & Car Parks. Lyrics

Lonely eyes

They meet mine, in the mirror

In the middle of the night

They're curious

They're hopeful cause they've no idea

What tomorrow brings

But my impatience can be a vice

That tightens on my mind

I gotta get it all done

Before tomorrow comes

Here we are

In coffee shops and car parks

Young and still waiting on that spark

To ignite

And that's alright

Cause coffee sure ain't free

And parking isn't cheap in this town

We've just got to slow down

Tired eyes

They meet mine across the bar in the daytime

They're questioning

They're drowning in confusion

At how the world's passed them by

And my impatience can be a vice

That tightens on my mind

I can't pretend I know

Where all this goes

Here we are

In coffee shops and car parks

Young and still waiting on that spark

To ignite, and that's alright

Cause coffee sure ain't free

And parking isn't cheap in this town

We've just got to slow down

Once heard a Billy Joel song tell me

"You can't be everything you want to be before your time"

But my impatience can be a vice

That tightens on my mind

I gotta get to that place

Before I lose the race

Here we are

In coffee shops and car parks

Young and still waiting on that spark

To ignite, and that's alright

Cause coffee sure ain't free

And parking isn't cheap in this town

We've just got to slow down

Slow down

Slow down
