She came from the middle of nowhere
A sleepy Pennsylvania town
Her mother held her guilty for so long
She finally put those burden?s down
He spent his whole life on city fare
His window played the evening sun
It?s hard to believe for a strong man
He sure was a lonely one

She took the morning shift downtown
Strange to be his favorite place
After every single customer was cruel enough
He was the only one to smile and say

Thank you for the coffee
A simple conversation
Thank you for the light shining in your eyes
It?s taken such a long time to find someone to talk to
I know it ain?t much but thank you for your time

It?s hard to find a kindred soul
People are so unkind
Little things can drive you crazy
And stay locked away in your mind
And so they say that?.Frankie and Johnny were lovers
Just like Romeo and Juliet
Time never listens to fairy tales
And so love had met the bitter end

He went back to his city life
Pennsylvania call her name
You keep on living and trying to find
Someone with the time to say

Thank you for the coffee
A simple conversation
Thank you for the light shining in your eyes
It?s taken such a long time to find someone to talk to
I know it ain?t much but thank you for your time
