lyrics

Café Fantasy

You smile from your toes up
I see you every day
As you raise your coffee cup
But I don’t know your name
We’re just people passing by
On our way to somewhere
If I had the nerve to ask
Would you meet me there?

With that twinkle in your eye
Could you help me find my way?
And are you more surprised at that idea than me?

I really dread the weekends now
I feel like I’m just waiting, waiting, waiting
For Monday to come around
Just to see you again

With that twinkle in your eye
Could you help me find my way?
And are you more surprised at that idea than me?
Here at Café Fantasy

So I’m drinking too much coffee
I can’t get any sleep
I feel like I’m just waiting, waiting, waiting
For a chance to hear you speak

You got that twinkle in your eye
Could you help me find my way?
And are you more surprised at that idea than me?
Here at Café Fantasy

Just a fantasy
I feel like I’m just waiting, waiting, waiting
