Entrees and Refills
Written by: D. Bateman (BMI), C. Gallagher (BMI Work #11718398)
Another lonely hour
Killed under rows of light
What have these nights come to
Entrees and refills
Coffee and menus
If tables could talk
Think of the stories
A hundred generations
Packed into a night
Bottomless wisdom from one who knows
No one but strangers
No one but strangers
If these chairs could listen
Think of the weight
Even a party of one won't be alone tonight
Won't be alone tonight
The rain's coming down
It falls on your face
You blink when it burns
The feelings are erased
The tears spell it out
When mixed with the rain
And all you can hear
Is her calling out your name
Another smoky hour gone
And what's there to show for it
These nights will never change
I fresh cup of coffee
One more in the pack
Maybe you'll stay just a little bit longer
If tables could talk
Think of the stories
Watch endless patience
If you care to stay
These tables had it all
Heartbreak to romance
Pain into laughter
The pain turns to laughter
If these chairs could listen
Think of the weight
Even a party of one won't be alone tonight
Won't be alone tonight
The rain's coming down
It falls on your face
You blink when it burns
The feelings are erased
The tears spell it out
When mixed with the rain
And all you can hear
Is her calling out your name
She'll be gone faster than your last
She'll be gone faster than your last cigarette
She's burning out
She's burning
Going
Fading away
