Pieternel - All Night Cafe

Verse:
At the corner of lonely
And thirty-second street
There’s a bar that falls apart
And at a table there sits me
There’s a guy on a barstool
On his second whisky shot
He only pays in quarters
I guess that’s all he’s got

Chorus:
At the all night cafe
They all know my name
I got a bottomless cup
And the coffee is great
At the all night cafe
I can while the hours away
Making up stories
Of the strangers I see

Verse:
There’s a woman by the bathroom
Tears run down her face
A steady stream of suffering
Like rain on windowpanes
There’s a crack from top to bottom
And a spot that always leaks
Even when the sun shines
There’s a bucket underneath
Chorus:
At the all night cafe
Well, they all know my name
I got a bottomless cup
And the coffee is great
At the all night cafe
I can while the hours away
Making up stories
Of the strangers I see
At the all night cafe

Bridge:
I never go home
till I drink myself blind
So I don’t have to see
the dress that used to be white
the place where I feel closest to home

Chorus:
At the all night cafe
Where they all know my name
I got a bottomless cup
and the coffee is great
At the all night cafe
I can while the hours away
Making up stories
of the strangers I see

Making up stories
of the strangers I see
Making up stories
of the strangers I see
