Shine another glass, make the hours pass
Working every day in a cheap café
Who am I to care for a love affair?
Still, I can't forget, I can see them yet
They came in, hand in hand
Why can't I forget?
For they'd seen the sign
That said room to let
The sunshine of love was deep in their eyes
So young, oh-so young
Too young to be wise
They wanted a place, a small hideaway
A place of their own, if just for one day
The rose was so pale, the covers so thin
But they took that room
And have them walk me in
And I closed the door and turned to the card
With tears in my eyes and tears in my heart
Shine another glass, make the hours pass
Working every day in a cheap café
Who am I to care? One more love affair
Love is nothing new, I have work to do
We found them next day, the way they had planned
So white, so cold, but still hand in hand
The sunshine of love was all that they possessed
And so in the sunshine, we let them to rest
They sleep side by side
Two children alone
But I'm sure they found a place of their own
So why must I see the revenchy wall
The glow on his face when I closed the door
Be still, children, still
Your shadows placed out
The tears in my eyes and tears in my heart
Shine another glass, make the hours pass
Working every day in a cheap café
Everything is fine 'til I see that side
How can I forget? It says "Room to let"
