Café

Empty station on some early morning

Waking sounds from every distant corner

Measuring my step, I walk to meet you

All the years, the time, the distance

Disappear

You're here

Curtains floating through an open window

In a café's warmth that draws us closer

We exchange a wish or two together

In an atmosphere of never, never

Yet

No more

Through the window other scenes are playing

But I can only hear what we are saying

For a moment in our lives, the time stops

Then it starts

And it all falls away

The streets, the café

Your lovely face out of sight

Empty station on some early morning

Waking sounds from every distant corner

Measuring my step, I walk to meet you

All the years, the time, the distance

Disappear

Now you're here

Curtains floating through an open window

In a café's warmth that draws us closer

We exchange a wish or two together

In an atmosphere of never, never

Yet

No more

Through the window other scenes are playing

But I can only hear what we are saying

For a moment in our lives, the time stops

Then it starts

And it all falls away

The streets, the café

Your lovely face out of sight

Out of sight
