Michelle Featherstone: "Coffee & Cigarettes"

Heard yet another new (new to me) and cool artist on Pandora radio today! I am so out of the loop that Pandora is the only way that I learn about new artists. I love this song by Michelle Featherstone, "Coffee & Cigarettes." This song is so beautiful. I love the simplicity of the piano and the lyrics, especially the last line, "I must quit you," when the singer realizes that her problems are not coffee or cigarettes, but rather being addicted to the wrong person.

I gave up coffee and cigarettes
I hate to say it hasn't helped me yet
I thought my problems would just dissipate
And all my pain would be in yesterday

I poured my booze all down the kitchen drain
And watched my bad habits get flushed away
I thought that that would keep my head on straight
And all my pain would be in yesterday

But it's true
I'm still blue
But I finally know what to do
I must quit
I must quit
You

I thought that if I didn't go and play
The sadness would get bored and go away
I thought that if I didn't go astray
Then all my pain would be in yesterday

But it's true
I'm still blue
But I finally know what to do
I must quit
I must quit
You

I sold my guitar and my piano
I thought that it was these that kept me low
I thought if only I could try and change
That all my pain would be in yesterday

But it's true
I'm still blue
But I finally know what to do
I must quit
I must quit
You

I must quit
I must quit
You
