I'm sittin' in this cafe
|
People talkin' so loud
|
I can't hear myself think
|
And that's not a bad thing
|
|
The coffee keeps on coming
|
Waiter keeps smilin'
|
As I'm ridin' on this river of caffeine
|
And that's not a bad thing
|
|
I used to feel sorry for someone like me
|
In a corner booth
|
Pretendin' to read on a Friday night
|
I 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
|
|
All those thoughts
|
Of how would I 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
|
|
There's a tug on the edge of my heart
|
It's you again sayin'
|
"Don't you start lettin' go of me"
|
But I'm not listenin'
|
|
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, it's not a bad thing
|
|
As I'm drivin' home
|
I'm thinkin' the worst might be over
|
Or maybe I'm a little bit naive
|
But the street lights seem brighter
|
|
As I walk up to my front door
|
I'm all alone when I turn the key
|
And it's not a bad thing
|
No, it's not a bad thing
|

Not A Bad Thing
