[Verse 1] There’s a little light On the corner table still Coffee’s long gone cold But the silence pays the bill Outside, taxis bloom Like yellow flowers in the rain Nobody’s in a rush To explain the ache again [Verse 2] You straighten up your coat Like you’re leaving any minute now But every quiet smile Finds another reason to stay somehow The piano knows the room Better than the walls can tell Every fading chord Rings a tiny hotel bell [Chorus] Last table by the window That’s where we remain Watching little rivers Running down the glass again No promises to borrow No yesterday to mend Just one more song between us Before the night pretends to end [Verse 3] The waiter stacks the chairs One by one across the floor Still he leaves our corner Exactly as it was before Someone laughs outside Then disappears into the blue Funny how the whole wide world Can shrink until it’s only two [Bridge] Maybe love is quieter Than all the stories say Not a blaze that fills the sky Just a lamp that stays [Final Chorus] Last table by the window Nothing left to prove Only gentle breathing Keeping time with every groove If tomorrow calls us We’ll answer when it must Tonight the room is small enough To hold a little trust [Outro] The lights grow soft The glasses shine Your hand finds mine For one more line.
