THE COFFEE SONG
(Tony Colton / Ray Smith)

Cream


There's a full time
reservation
Made in a bar at the
railway station
And there's a story,
a kind of fable
On a card at the
corner table

On it is a message
been there some time
It starts off: "The
coffee tasted so fine"

It says: "One day,
this may find you
These few words may
just remind you
We sat here together
just to pass time
You said how the
coffee tasted so fine"

It goes on to say: "I
love you
If you should find
this I must hear from you"
It gives a number but
the name has faded away
All that is left are
just the words: "Maybe someday"

That's the story and
the fable
Never leave alone
from a corner table
