The past eight years they′d been living together
And they thought that they were in love
One day their feelings were suddenly missing
Like the car keys or one glove
So they smiled and said it doesn't matter
And they kissed and said we′ll just keep trying
But they looked at each other bewildered
He just stood there and she started crying
You could wave from the window at passing ships
You said hey it's a quarter past four
Let's go somewhere and have coffee
Someone practiced the piano next door
They went to the smallest cafe in town
Stirred their coffee and stared at the wall
In the evening they were still sitting around
By themselves without a sound
They couldn′t believe it at all
They went to the smallest cafe in town
Stirred their coffee and stared at the wall
In the evening they were still sitting around
By themselves without a sound
Just couldn′t believe it at all
