Irish Coffee

Seated at blue note NYC
Right in the middle of Greenwich
Seated right in front of the scene
The kind of moment that sticks in your memory
The waiter asks us what we'd like to drink
So I'm ordering an Irish coffee
And I was only seventeen
The kind of moment that's written in ink
The whole place is under a dim lighting
Not a single seat is left empty
And as soon as the band starts playing
Everyone listens quietly
The music floats from the brass to our ears
The music that came from New-Orleans
And when it went up the Mississippi
The music that hit the big cities

Enjoying the bitter taste of coffee
Mixed up with the warmth of whiskey
While the music is surrounding me
It all just fits so perfectly
Every brass shines under the light
The gold reflection dazzles my sight
One by one they all rise
One by one they improvise
Seated at blue note NYC
Right in the middle of Greenwich
Seated right in front of the scene
The kind of moment that sticks in your memory
Seated at blue note NYC
Right in the middle of Greenwich
Sipping on a strong Irish coffee
I'm sipping on a strong Irish coffee
