Caedmon's Call lyrics - I Just Don't Want Coffee

album: Caedmon's Call (1997)

Though I am small I've seen things far beyond these city walls 
The land is flat and it rolls for miles 
I don't know much I know I've many places yet to see 
I know I've been here for a while 

Wouldn't you know just when I thought I had this figured out 
I'm back at my first day at school 
Trying not to think too loud I raise my hand to scratch my head 
I've no ideas of what to do 

'Cause something's changed today 
And what it is I just can't say 
And if I don't seem okay, well I'm okay 

[chorus]
So sue me, sue me, if I just don't want coffee tonight 

Back in this coffee house where we just met a week ago 
Now we've been friends since we were young 
But all our conversations are hitting walls we can't ignore 
We can hide but we can't run 

And I can't run from you 
Or what we've run into 
Now regardless what I choose, we both lose 

[chorus]

It must be getting late 
Where's my head 
Where is my head 
Where is my head 

I still hear you telling me what a big mistake I've made 
funny that's what I've been telling you 
I can lead a horse to water 
You can even make him drink 
But you can't change his point of view 

Tonight as I was driving home I passed a coffee shop 
You know I wrestled with the truth 
And how I'd explain to you what you could never understand 
And how I'd keep my mind from you 

But that's the price I pay 
Your way is not my way 
Today's another day and it's okay 

[chorus]

I think I need some rest 
Rest my head, arrest my head 
Rest my head, arrest my head 
Rest my head, arrest my head
