(Instrumental – upright bass groove, soft cymbal brush)
You walked in like a quiet breeze
Velvet coat, a touch of tease
That glance you gave across the room
Brewed my heart into full bloom
Espresso eyes, deep and warm
One look, and I was gone
Bittersweet like morning light
You woke me up without a fight
You stirred your drink, I stirred inside
Something ‘bout your style I couldn’t hide
Your book was open, half unread
But I was reading you instead
Espresso eyes, caffeine dreams
Running wild through coffee steam
Just one sip and I’m alive
Caught in the swirl of your midnight smile
Espresso eyes, pull me in
Let this moment slowly begin
Maybe it’s bold, maybe it’s fate
But I’ll ask your name before it’s too late
And if you smile, then I’ll believe
Love can bloom between coffee and leaves
Espresso eyes, rich and true
You changed my shade from black to blue
In this café, time won’t fly
If you stay and meet my eyes
Espresso eyes... stay awhile
I’ll take my love
Just like your gaze —
Slow, strong, and without haze
