Latté Days & Porter Nights Lyrics – Matthew Ebel
Singer: Matthew Ebel
Title: Latté Days & Porter Nights
Isn’t everything a dream?
Why can’t I wake up when wonderland’s more evil than it seemed?
We are creatures of belief, yet we believe in what we see
And we see clouds, so is that shallow? I don’t know, sounds good to me
Every day is just another chance to shine like
The neon lights that hang in coffe shops and bars
And illuminate the long nights, the cold nights
Here I am all huddled in this dive instead of
Shining for the world to know my Savior is alive
Gather up my wits and try and make it up and to the door
But with every step the waiter sits me down and pours me more
I remember life before I got involved and couldn’t leave
Well I was smarter then
Or maybe I was just naive
Sub Urban “UH OH!” Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified
Well I could never rip myself away
From your sweet embrace
I’ve been living on caffeine and on black beer
Since I dared to kiss your face
I’ve been blinded by the mystery
Of the bright northern lights
And in the mean time I’ve been
Drowned by latté days and porter nights
Break me out of this arrest
For a few of you I was the light that opened up your best
But the brightest signs can flicker on and off and get replaced
So you’ll find me in this tavern drinking beer and getting faced
So maybe I’ve become the darkness I should hate
No one ever said it’d be this hard
Or be this great
I guess the best parts are the mornings with hot java by the ounce
It helps to know the harder that you fall
The higher you bounce
Somebody send in the clowns
They’d distract you from this holy man who’s had his ups and downs
There are people who will look at me shaking their head
But we all get lost and in the end we all wind up dead
So maybe those that see me stumbling from barista to the bar
Might, instead of losing hope, they’ll help me up into their car
‘Cause who am I to say that caffeine and Corona lead to sin?
When I’m one foot outside the coffee shop
My head and heart are in
No man is an island, sometimes we rely upon our friends
Someone has to blow us out when we’ve been burning at both ends
See, I’m just living with my body
Trying to make it worth the sacrifice
Well I may be a Christian
But I never said that I was Christ
All I want is retrospect
‘case everything looks better fading far behind the pace you set
Once upon a time I knew what I was meant to be
And nothing in this changing world could change my road to destiny
But soon enough they started building roadside bars that served all night
And for the daytime they built Starbucks to my left and to my right
Even way back in the day a good man said
That there’s trouble waiting for you
But that bright light shines up ahead
While I’m hopping back and forth from libations to lattés
I’ve slowed down enough that I’ve lost track of all the passing days
But where there’s a bar there’s Baptists trying to save me from the drink
And though I’d love to write them off
They’ve got more credence than you think
See, there’s a man outside who’s pointing to my car that hasn’t moved
And as I start it up I feel somehow the road has been improved
This may be the longest song I’ve ever sung
But if I keep singing, I’m not drinking-
While I’m up here I’m just having fun
Well I could never rip myself away
From your sweet embrace
I’ve been living on caffeine and on black beer
Since I dared to kiss your face
I’ve been blinded by the mystery
Of the bright northern lights
And in the mean time I’ve been
Drowned by latté days and porter nights
(You know they got me dead to rights.)
