Café de Flore lyrics

There by the window

at tables for two she raises her glass

to love she once knew

and drinks to herself it is all she can do

when nobody knows her name

That cold misty morning

his ship is setting sail

his hand to his heart

saying love would prevail

but time doesn’t heal it just serves as a veil

when nobody knows her name

She sees that her dream's had its hour

and neither sunlight nor shower

can make her heart flower

now that he's gone she keeps waiting

She cannot wither or grow

cos he loved her so ooooo

and nobody knows his name

Her life's become bangles

mascara and pain

a wasteland where shadow

and loneliness reign

where rituals stop her

from going insane

when nobody knows her name

She sees that her dream's had its hour

and neither sunlight nor shower

can make her heart flower

now that he's gone she keeps waiting

She cannot wither or grow

cos he loved her so ooooooo

and nobody knows his name

nobody knows her name
