The Sad Café
Lyricist:Frey Glenn Lewis, Henley Donald Hugh, Souther John David, Walsh Joseph F
Out in the shiny night The rain was softly falling The tracks that ran down the boulevard Had all been washed away
And out of the silver light The past came softly calling And I remember the times we spent Inside the Sad Cafe
Oh, it seemed like a holy place Protected by amazing grace And we would sing right out loud The things we could not say
We thought we could change this world With words like 'love' and 'freedom' We were part of the lonely crowd Inside the Sad Cafe
Oh, expecting to fly We would meet on that beautiful shore In the sweet by and by
Some of their dreams came true Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Some just passed away And some of them stay behind Inside the Sad Cafe
The clouds roll in and hid that shore And now that glory train It don't stop here no more
Now that I look at the years gone by And wonder at the powers that be I don't know why fortune smiles on some And let's the rest go free
So maybe the time has drawn The faces I recall But things in this life change very slowly If they ever change at all
There's no use in asking why It just turned out that way So meet me at midnight, baby Inside the Sad Cafe
Why don't you meet me at midnight, baby Inside the Sad Cafe?
