Lyrics

Cafe Vertigo
Music & Lyrics by Bruce Donnola

There's a fine line in between
Joy and misery,
And I don't know now which side I'm on.

It's so luxuriant
To feel this innocent,
Sitting here at a table for two
While I'm waiting for you.

Chorus:
At the Cafe Vertigo,
The Cafe Vertigo.

We met just yesterday,
And now it's Saturday.
We said we'd meet here at high noon
To get on a coffee jag,
And now it's 12:05.
If you don't show I'll be awfully blue,
Cause I'm waiting for you.

Chorus:
At the Cafe Vertigo,
The Cafe Vertigo.

BRIDGE:
I wrote the name and the street and the time and the day.
I couldn't stand to be stood up again,
Oh let luck roll my way.

I know there's cheaper spots,
And I know there's hipper ones,
But they'll let us sit here the whole day through-

And my head just flipped a beat
Cause I see you coming up the street
Headed here looking so cool,
II've been waiting for you.

Chorus:
At the Cafe Vertigo,
The Cafe Vertigo.
The Cafe Vertigo,
The Cafe Vertigo.
