after a cup of coffee

can I help you?
A
Could you bring me a strong cup of happiness
and maybe later a glass of dandelion wine
happiness I need so badly on such a kind of a morning
and the dandelion wine it simply makes me feel fine

she brought a cup of coffee and she gave me a heavenly smile
brightened up my morning and then after a minute´s time
she came back with red wine smiled into my face
I knew I fell in love with her right here in this place
What a dream
R
(happiness is like dandelion wine
It´s a dream but I do feel fine
I´m a dreamer, dream away the night
I´m a dreamer, and I ´m feeling alright
A
Late at night I´m home again after a long day of confusion
There was nothing, really nothing on my tv screen
And nobody, nobody, nobody gave me a phone ring
So I raised my glass and I drank me into my sleep
B
Dreamed about that waitress how she brightened up my day
So I tried to kiss her but her face it slipped away
stared into my coffee cup, it stared back at me
started singing “buddy, oh what a dream!”
what a dream
R
(happiness is like dandelion wine
It´s a dream but I do feel fine
I´m a dreamer, dream away the night
I´m a dreamer, and I ´m feeling alright

Solo

(gesprochen) A
I really feel fine, I´do feel fine in the mornings
Most of the time I feel happy like a new born child,
but it changes, sometimes it changes at the end of the daytime
And then, late in the night I feel like crying
B
But tonight it´s different after many a cup of tea
asked her for a date, and ,uh yeah, she did agree
Felt like dancing in the street , happy as can be
Coffee cup kept whispering: buddy, what a dream
What a dream
R
(happiness is like dandelion wine
It´s a dream but I do feel fine
I´m a dreamer, dream away the night
I´m a dreamer, but I ´m feeling alright
