She puts the coffee on the counter before he takes his seat |
|
And slides the sugar closer to him, she knows he likes it sweet |
|
And then she lingers with busy fingers waiting for his smile |
|
They talk about the rainy weather, she's thinking all the while |
|
What she wants to say is |
|
"i could love a man like you, oh how i wish you knew |
|
I have seen you're good and kind, strong enough for two |
|
You could sweep me off my feet and carry me away" |
|
But all she says is "have a nice day" |
|
They talk about how unemployment is finally coming down |
|
The factory that's gonna bring some life back to this town |
|
She wonders if his words mean more than what it really seems |
|
And she's still looking for the courage to say just what she means |
|
What she wants to say is |
|
"i could love a man like you, oh how i wish you knew |
|
I have seen you're good and kind, strong enough for two |
|
I'm more woman than i can show you in this old cafe" |
|
But all she says is "have a nice day" |
|
He winks once then he's gone, she's got time to kill |
|
And in her dreams she's leaving with him, she knows some day she will |
|
What she wants to say is |
|
"i could love a man like you, oh how i wish you knew |
|
I have seen you're good and kind, strong enough for two |
|
I'm more woman than i can show you in this old cafe" |
|
But all she says is, all she says is |
|
All she says is "have a nice day" |
