Coffee Shop Song

Mary walks into the coffee shop
 Takes her chair by the window
 Her usual spot
 And she wonders if
 All the people who stop and stare
 Oh, can see through the glass
 To the stains that she wears on the inside
 For she's tried to scrub them clean
 But they don't go away
 Oh, and she's cried herself to sleep
 So she lifts the rug
 So she sweeps up the dirt
 So she runs from love
 And she hides the hurt
 But the guilt and shame
 They still remain
 Like a stain upon her shirt
 Mary sits and listens as music plays
 And the words strike a chord
 Down inside of her with what they say
 For the singer paints
 Oh, a picture of a freer life
 Oh, of shoulders much lighter
 From laying their burden aside
 For he's found a way to get clean
 To wash it all away
 And he sings of how it used to be
 How he raised the rug
 How he swept up the dirt
 How he ran from love
 And he hid the hurt
 But the guilt and shame
 Always remained
 Like a stain upon his shirt
 But there is someone who
 Loves you unconditionally
 Just confess with your mouth
 And you will be free
 Just believe in your heart
 Oh, he'll raise the rug
 He will clean up the dirt
 He will give you love
 And he'll heal your hurt
 For your guilt and shame
 He'll take the blame
 Give you a brand new shirt
 Mary walks into the coffee shop
 Takes her chair by the window
 Her usual
