80's music buffs, does anyone remember a really sad song about a couple

probably husband and wife.The wife is really tired with the way the husband treats her. It has a line about making coffee and the scene is mostly about clearing breakfast things.

I know, very vague I remember really liking it but can't remember any specific lyrics.

Could it be Where have all the cowboys gone - Paula Cole?

Lyrics here

itwasntme · 20/05/2009 21:43

Is it the everything but the girl song?

annmar · 20/05/2009 21:48

It could be Superwomen by Karyn White.

Lyrics here

I think the cowboy one was 90s not 80s

jumblies · 20/05/2009 21:48

nope and nope. It is really sad. The husband is taking the wife for granted and she is miserable etc

God knows why I was drawn to it at such an early age

That should be Superwoman

giddykipper · 20/05/2009 21:49

Woman singer?

Can you remember the video?

snigger · 20/05/2009 21:50

Are you sure it's not Superwoman? That's all about the making coffee and misery.

Or All Woman, by Lisa Stansfeld?

giddykipper · 20/05/2009 21:51

Woman singer?

Can you remember the video?

Sawyer64 · 20/05/2009 21:51

Yep seconded "Superwoman".Have you listened to it Jumblies?

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 20/05/2009 21:52

Lisa Stansfield is what sprang to mind here.

feedthegoat · 20/05/2009 21:54

Might be a long shot as was 1990 but Beautiful South - Need a little time?

feedthegoat · 20/05/2009 21:56

Just found lyrics - no mention of coffee so ignore me!

Sawyer64 · 20/05/2009 21:56

here

jumblies · 20/05/2009 21:57

yep that is the one annmar, thankyou, I can now go to bed and rest easy

Just out of interest. Anyone remember one about sitting in the dark with rain coming down outside and piano in it??

Sawyer64 · 20/05/2009 21:58

Not the original singer on the Vid though.

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 20/05/2009 21:59

Piano in the dark?

jumblies · 20/05/2009 22:01

its not that one though can see why you would say it...as it has all the elements.

slayerette · 20/05/2009 22:05

Oh I was just coming on to say Superwoman but got well and truly beaten to it.

Can I be praised anyway??

jumblies · 20/05/2009 22:06

yes, you can be praised...but can you get my other one. Think it might be a man who sang it??
