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
