The song was written when I was chilling in a coffee shop at my home town 😎
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sinking in this warm cosy chair
Coffee cup in hand, holding the warmth
Soft jazz hums, baristas laugh
People rush by, my mind stays in the past
Sunlight beams through the parking lot
Dad’s old car, that leather smell
The days I counted trucks through the window
Telling dad one day I'd drive him around
[Chorus]
I’ve got a window seat, second cup
Watching strangers walking by
Every details spark tiny memories
Another little reason why I smile
Letting all my old dreams wander
Down the side of my mind
[Verse 2]
There goes a girl in a faded coat
Headphones on, lost in her song
Once I swore I’d leave this town
Funny how I’m still hanging on
The taste of that cream cookie
Night shift lights and tired eyes
Wrote my number on a paper napkin
Watched him leave and never cried
[Chorus]
I’ve got a window seat, second cup
Watching strangers walking by
Every details spark tiny memories
Another little reason why I smile
Letting all my old dreams wander
Down the side of my mind
[Bridge]
Every face that flickers through
Built the person I am today
Like mom's hand, pulled me through the hard days
How I hold these memories dear
[Chorus]
I’ve got a window seat, second cup
Watching strangers walking by
Every details spark tiny memories
Another little reason why I smile
Letting all my old dreams wander
Down the side of my mind (of my mind)
