Verse 1
He wakes up in the morning, and he looks into the mirror
His hair is grey, his face is lined, and his eyes are dull and clear
He thinks about a woman who he loved when he was young
He wonders if she thinks about him, and if she's still alone
Chorus
Another cup of coffee, another cigarette
Another day to try and get through without regret
Another lonely night, another empty bed
Another day to wish that he was somewhere else instead
Verse 2
He goes to work each morning, and he sits behind a desk
He types away at his computer, and he tries to do his best
But his mind is always wandering, and he finds it hard to care
He's just a man who's lost his way, and he's going nowhere
Chorus
Another cup of coffee, another cigarette
Another day to try and get through without regret
Another lonely night, another empty bed
Another day to wish that he was somewhere else instead
Bridge
He thinks about the things he's done, and the things he's left undone
He thinks about the people he's hurt, and the battles he's never won
He wonders if it's too late, to make a brand new start
He wonders if he'll ever find, the peace that's in his heart
Chorus
Another cup of coffee, another cigarette
Another day to try and get through without regret
Another lonely night, another empty bed
Another day to wish that he was somewhere else instead
