This is the fourth song on Roan’s debut album “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess.” It’s the first taste of a tender side we get from her on this album. She details the pain of trying to meet up with an ex, while moving on from them.
[Verse 1]
Can't meet you for dinner
At the Italian place
It's where I met your family
Some words were exchanged
I'd suggest the jazz bar
On MaryAnn Street
But you'd buy me a drink
And we know where that leads, so
[Chorus]
I'll meet you for coffee
'Cause if we have wine
You'll say that you want me
I know that's a lie
If I didn't love you
It would be fine
Meet you for coffee, only for coffee
Nowhere else is safe
Every place leads back to your place
[Verse 2]
He said let's do the park
'Cause I love the park
That may be true
But God forbid it gets dark
Here come the excuses that fuel the illusions
But I'd rather feel something
Than nothing at all, so
[Chorus]
I'll meet you for coffee
'Cause if we have wine
You'll say that you're sorry
I know that's a lie
If I didn't trust you
It would be fine
I'll meet you for coffee, only for coffee
Nowhere else is safe
Every place leads back to your—
[Bridge]
We've done this before
And I don't need it anymore
[Chorus]
So let's not do coffee
Let's not even try
It's better we leave it
And give it some time
If I didn't love you
It would be fine
'Cause if we do coffee
It's never just coffee
It's never just coffee
