I m sitting in this cafe
|
People talking so loud
|
I can t hear myself think
|
And that s not a bad thing
|
The coffee keeps on coming
|
The waiter keeps on smilin
|
As I m riding on a river of caffeine
|
And that s not a bad thing
|
|
Chorus:
|
I used to feel sorry for someone like me
|
In a conrner booth pretending to read on a Friday night
|
Used to say it just ain t right
|
How could anybody ever have any fun
|
Without somebody, without someone
|
It never dawned on me
|
The possibility
|
That it s not a bad thing
|
Those nagging thoughts about you
|
How I ll live without you
|
Tonight, you know they re
|
Few and far between
|
The waiter s name is Joey
|
He told me, and that s when
|
I noticed he ain t wearing any ring
|
And that s not a bad thing
|
|
And there s a tug on the edge of my heart
|
It s you again saying
|
Don t you start letting go of me
|
But i ain t listening
|
For once in my life
|
I ll feel what I feel
|
Let it be
|
Let it be real
|
Let it flow through me
|
And wash me clean
|
That s not a bad thing
|
|
Let it be real
|
Let it flow through me
|
And wash me clean
|
That s not a bad thing
|
|
As I m driving home I m thinking
|
The worst might be over
|
Or maybe I m a little bit naive
|
But the streetlights seem brighter
|
As I walk to my front door
|
And I m all alone when I turn the key
|
And that s not a bad thing
|
|
Chorus
