The Sad Cafe (Live)

The Sad Cafe (Live) - Eagles

Out in the shiny night

The rain was softly falling

Tracks that ran down

The boulevard had all been washed away

Out of the silver light

The past came softly calling

And I remember the times

We spent inside the Sad Café

Oh it seemed like a holy place

Protected by amazing grace

And we would sing right out loud

The things we could not say

We thought we could change this

World with words like love and freedom

We were part of the lonely

Crowd inside the Sad Café

Oh expecting to fly

We would meet on that

Beautiful shore in the sweet by and by

Some of their dreams came true some just passed away

And some of them stayed behind inside the Sad Café

The clouds rolled in and hid that shore

Now that Glory Train it don't stop here no more

Now I look at the years gone

By and wonder at the powers that be

I don't know why fortune smiles

On some and let's the rest go free

Maybe the time has drawn the faces I recall

But things in this life change

Very slowly if they ever change at all

No use in asking why it just turned out that way

So meet me at midnight baby inside the Sad Café

Why don't you meet me at midnight

Baby inside the Sad Café
