Overnight Café (2003 Remaster)

Overnight Café (2003 Remaster) - Chicago

All alone on the road near the other side of town

In the dark of the night and the rain was fallin' down

Up ahead said a sign was the overnight cafe

Maybe one for the road just to pass the night away

Then she came in the room and she moved across the floor

With the look of a woman who's been through it all before

Then she smiled as she spoke and it made me realize

That the time was right and the love was in her eyes

That the time was right and the love was in her eyes

Then she asked and I told her that I was due in town

Hey mama can you tell me what's on your mind

Then she told me that she'd like to see me hang around

And maybe I could take her home

Never know what could happen when we're both alone

Now I'm back on the road and I'm running overtime

Turn around if I could and you know it crossed my mind

But I know I'll be back 'cause she made me realize

That the time was right and the love was in her eyes

That the time was right and the love was in her eyes
