The Moon In My Coffee

the moon in my coffee the colour of cream
is rising a little incredible dream
im out on the terrace the evening is young

and trying to study the flares on the sun
the moon in my coffee the colour of gold
is iced with small crystals it's starting to snow

im starting to feel it for Heaven's sake
the heat isnt on in here
my mistake

was causing the terrace to ice over blue
a beautiful dream but Im glad it's not true.
