Let's get breakfast
At the Strawberry Cafe
And we'll talk about the day
With a coffee in the way
Of the
Two of us
With some artwork on the wall
I thought I'd buy it all
When summer turns to fall
It was the best time
What a joyride
Thought I'd never live without her
She pulled the rug
I'm on my knees
She said goodbye
I was left to bleed
And you know
I loved the way you smiled
As cliche as that sounds
And I miss the way you'd look at me and say
"Let's go to the Strawberry Cafe."
But I've spent these last six months with my feelings
And it's felt like years since you said, "I'm leaving."
Don't know if I'm dead or alive
But I guess I'll just survive
You had a dream we got married
It was sweet, like berries
But that didn't mean a thing
And my life is over
I'm getting older
And now I'll walk alone
It was the first night
In a long time
That I didn't think about her
I saw her car in the parking lot
At Tilly's, where we used to shop
And you know
I loved the way you smiled
As cliché as that sounds
And I miss waking up to you every day
To go to the Strawberry Cafe
I miss the way you cried
When I'd leave to go back home
Remember when I turned around and stayed?
To go to the Strawberry Cafe
She was dancing by the Jukebox
She was a new age Americana girl
And I would say that "I was too much."
She'd say "Baby, that's a lie."
It was close to the end
Now I lost a friend
Bummer
And she's the reason I had a long summer
I'm just a call away
And you know what I would say, babe
I'd still get breakfast
At the Strawberry Cafe
And I'd ask about your day
If you cared, anyway
And you know
I loved the way you smiled
As cliche as that sounds
And I miss waking up to you every day
To go to the Strawberry Cafe
I miss the way you cried
When I'd leave to go back home
Remember when I turned around and stayed?
To go to the Strawberry Cafe
