If I were to die tonight
I'd like to come back as your mornin' coffee
Just as strong and just as necessary
'Cause I realize there's nothin' I love more
Than what I'm holdin' in my arms right now
Girl, you're what poets write about
I'm sure there's grander things
That a guy could hope to be
But I'd rather keep it simple
And be what you always need
I wanna be strong for ya
I wanna be good for ya
The first thing that you think of
When you open up your eyes
I wanna be there for ya
Be like a prayer for ya
Kiss your lips each mornin'
And bring you back to life
Yeah, I know I'm soundin' crazy, baby
But I'd wanna be your mornin' coffee
Yeah, I'd get to be the one that sees you
Before anybody else does
With your messed up hair, wearin' my old t-shirt
If I couldn't touch you with these hands
And love you like I do
Well it'd be the next best thing
To bein' here with you
Oh, yeah
I wanna be strong for ya
I wanna be good for ya
The first thing that you think of
When you open up your eyes
I wanna be there for ya
Be like a prayer for ya
Kiss your lips each mornin'
And bring you back to life
Yeah, I know I'm soundin' crazy, baby
But I'd wanna be your mornin' coffee
Your mornin' coffee
If I were to die tonight
I'd like to come back as your mornin' coffee
Yeah, 'cause every day, every day, girl
I wanna be strong for ya
I wanna be good for ya
The first thing that you think of
When you open up your eyes
I wanna be there for ya
Be like a prayer for ya
Kiss your lips each mornin'
And bring you back to life
Yeah, I know I'm soundin' crazy baby
But I'd wanna be your mornin' coffee
Your mornin' coffee
