Coffee & Dreams

Still waiting for my life to begin Not even comfortable in my own skin Always running on empty Filling up on coffee and dreams Being happy sure is harder than it seems But I get up every morning Feed the cats and go to work And hope when I get home That my man won't act berzerk I try to make the best of it 'Cause what's the use in crying Maybe one day I'll start living Before I'm even dying I try not to dwell On everything I'm missing So my life isn't exciting That's why they invented television But every night Before I close my eyes and go to sleep I make a wish that someday My life will feel complete But I get up every morning Feed the cats and go to work And hope when I get home That my man won't act berserk I try to make the best of it 'Cause what's the use in crying Maybe one day I'll start living Before I'm even dying So things could sure be better But they could get a whole lot worse I'm a realistic optimistic It's a blessing and a curse But you don't have to worry Because worry is a waste I just keep on going With a fake smile on my face But I get up every morning Feed the cats and go to work And hope when I get home That my man won't act berserk I try to make the best of it 'Cause what's the use in crying Maybe one day I'll start living Before I'm even dying Until then I'll try again And I'll just keep on trying So maybe I'll start living Before I'm even dying
