(verse 1)
I'm sittin' in this cafe,
People talkin' so loud I can't hear myself think,
That's not a bad thing,
The coffee keeps on coming,
The waiter who keeps smilin' as,
I'm ridin' on a river of caffeine,
An' that's not a bad thing,
(chorus)
I used to feel sorry for someone like me,
In a corner booth pretendin' 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
(verse 2)
Those naggin' thoughts about you,
How I left 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,
An' that's not a bad thing,
(chorus)
And there is a tug on the edge of my heart,
It's you again sayin ,Don't you start lettin' go of me,
But I ain't listenin,
For once in my life, I'll feel what I feel,
Let it be, let it be real, let it flow through me,
An' wash me clean, that's not a bad thing,

(verse 3)
As I'm drivin' home, I'm thinkin, the worst might be over,
Or maybe I'm a little bit naive,
But the street lights seem brighter,
As I walk to my front door,
And I'm all alone when I turn the key,
An' that's not a bad thing,
(chorus)
I used to feel sorry for someone like me,
In a corner booth pretendin' to read on a Friday night,

How could anybody ever have any fun,
Without somebody, without someone,
