Ballad Of The Sad Cafe

[Verse 1]
Midnight to lonely midnight
Each night until the dawn
The sad said, look what I had said
Their hearts said they just go on
They try to hard or else they cry
Too hard, they play too hard
Their blind mans game
Some our clever
And some our never
Whichever, it's all the same

[Verse 2]
Music playing loud and blue
Telling, selling nothing new
The lyrics sang the drama of a story
Old as life and love
The ballad of the sad cafe
People laughing all around

[Verse 3]
There's no laughter in the sound
A little proud and none too wisе
The story's there within thеir eyes
The ballad of the sad cafe
A lonely conversation in the corner
Where no one is [?]

[Verse 4]
Two strangers on a chance
Pretending new romance
To masquerade their need for sympathy
Keep that new day from the door
Fill that glass up once more

[Outro]
But time has said the party's through
So add another chapter to the ballad of the sad cafe
