At a table alone in this cafe tonight
He sits pain clouds his eyes
The waitress is calling but he doesn't hear
What wrong? Ice in his heart
Worlds end, things fall apart
When you're saying goodbye to love
Sitting in a cafe down by the harbour
Saying goodbye to love
What could be sadder what could be harder
Saying goodbye to love
It's like killing a thing that's just been born
Saying goodbye to love
You walk out of the sunlight Into the storm
On the river outside ships come in from the south
Her last kiss burns on his mouth
The waitress she wonders why he sits so quiet
Well don't ask if he feels alright
Leave him alone with the night
He's saying goodbye to love
Sitting in a cafe down by the harbour
Saying goodbye to love
What could be sadder what could be harder
Saying goodbye to love
It's like killing a thing that's just been born
Saying goodbye to love
You walk out of the sunlight Into the storm
Never never never again
Never never never again
Never to look into to your eyes
Why do you run why do you hide?
At a table alone when rain starts to fall
What's left not much at all
A rose in a vase that is fading way
A painted face on the wall
Who's there no one at all
When you're saying goodbye to love
Sitting in a cafe down by the harbour
Saying goodbye to love
What could be sadder what could be harder
Saying goodbye to love
It's like killing a thing that's just been born
Saying goodbye to love
You walk out of the sunlight Into the storm
