about

Another old love song from the vault! This one was written in 2009 and has never been recorded before.

For this album we considered changing the title and a couple of the words... because babies don't drink coffee, and Coffee Song didn't seem like the most logical title for a lullaby. But in the end "Cocoa Song" didn't feel quite right; we went back to the original lyric, and figured folks would understand. Copyright 2009.

lyrics

My love when you love me
you kiss me so sweetly
Your love comes to meet me
with poppies and posies
Your heart speaks all softly
to mine all inside me
Says my love, my only, stay by my side

My love when you kiss me
on my eyes, on my cheeks
Your breath warm, so sweetly
like coffee, like candy
You make it so easy
my love when you love me
Your heart speaks, all softly, stay by my side

My love when you love me
you kiss me so sweetly
Your love comes to meet me
with poppies and posies
Your heart speaks all softly
to mine all inside me
Says my love, my only, stay by my side
