Café of Tears
It always seems like there’s no sun
When someone breaks your heart
It’s like the daylight refuses to show
While your world falls apart
That’s how it seemed when we sat there that day
One resolute, one in fear
She drank her hot chocolate and love drained away
In the Café of Tears
I tried to reach her with the fun of the past
But there was really no use
The sandy beaches, the picture show nights
Were just re-runs of old news
I tried to kid myself, tried to be bold
Nothing’s going wrong here
But my coffee grew cold
As I watched the great fall of romance
In the Café of Tears
And as she smiled I just sat there
The day turned a storm cloud grey
I watched in slow motion the waiter appear
Did he know that I’d already paid?
There are still times when I go by there
The last not so long ago
And I saw a couple at the same table
And the afternoon sun sank so low
That’s how we must have looked
So tense and grim
Nothing seemed very clear
Now she’s put her cup down and all hope’s left him
In the Café of Tears
