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 hand in hand, why can't I forget
Above they've 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 hide away
A place of their own- if just for one day
The wall was so bare, the carpet so thin,
But they took that room and heaven walked in
And I closed the door and turned to depart
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 quiet, so cold, but still hand in hand
The sunshine of love was all 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 ribbon she wore, the glow on his face
when I close the door
Be still, children, still, your shadows they start 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 sign
How can I forget: it says 'Room to let'.
