Steam in the cold air
Another quiet night
⸻
Paper cup between my hands
Corner store at 2 A.M
Yellow light across the street
Rain keeps dancing at my feet
Taxi fades into the dark
Someone laughs beyond the park
Your name never crossed my lips
Still, you’re somewhere in this trip
⸻
Nothing has to turn around
Some nights are enough somehow
⸻
Paper cup
Hold it close
Warm enough to miss you most
Paper cup
Take it slow
Watch the city overflow
Paper cup
Half asleep
Keeping moments that we keep
⸻
Window fog begins to bloom
Headlights paint an empty room
Radio with faded tones
Making silence feel like home
Coffee cooling by my side
Green lights changing with the tide
Morning waits beyond the blue
I’m still walking next to you
⸻
Maybe every passing street
Leaves a little piece of me
Maybe every paper cup
Knows the nights we never touched
⸻
Paper cup
One last sip
Leave the words we almost said
Paper cup
City glow
Everything keeps moving slow
Paper cup
Home again
I’ll remember where we’ve been
⸻
The cup is empty now
The night is not
