Alone on a terrace at dawn
I drink my coffee
Alone on a terrace at dawn
Daydreaming
I watch people
Half asleep
I'm wasting time
I'm waiting for the sun
Alone on a terrace at dawn
I drink my coffee
Already five in the morning
And I feel sick
Don't want me
If I make myself fragile
But like the evening prayers
I'm no longer consistent
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
Alone on a terrace at dawn,
I drink my past
Alone on a terrace where no-one
Would have doubted it
Don't want me
If I wanted to screw around
But nothing is waiting for me
But my coffee
To say that yesterday, life still seemed so good to me
To say that yesterday, the worst still seemed so far away from me
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
When I see myself
Alone in this way, so bathed in sunlight
Me, I see myself
Safe from reality
When I see myself
Alone in this way and so awake,
. . .so tired
To say that yesterday, life still seemed so good to me
To say that yesterday, the future still said to me: "come"
To say that yesterday, life still seemed so good to me
To say that yesterday, the worst still seemed so far away from me
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
Let me drink my coffee
Let me drink my coffee, yeah
