I'm sittin' 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 smiling As I'm riding on this river of caffeine And that's not a bad thing I used to feel sorry for someone like me In a corner booth pretending to read On a Friday night I 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 All those thoughts of how will I 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 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'm not 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 Yeah it's not a bad thing It's not a bad thing As I'm driving home I'm thinking The worse might be over Or maybe I'm a little bit naive But the streetlights seem brighter as I walk up to my front door I'm all alone when I turn the key And it's not a bad thing
