Intro: I'm sitting in this café People talking so loud I can't hear myself think And that's not a bad thing The coffee keeps on coming The waiter keeps smiling As I'm riding on this river of caffeine And that's not a bad thing I used to feel sorry for someone like me In a corner booth pretending to read On a Friday night I used to say, it just ain't right How could anybody ever have any fun Without somebody, without someone It never dawned on me, the possibility That it's not a bad thing All those thoughts of 'How will I live without you' Tonight you know they're few and far between The waiter's name is Joey He told me and that's when I noticed He ain't wearing any ring And that's not a bad thing There's a tug on the edge of my heart It's you again saying, "Don't you start Letting go of me" But I'm not listening For once in my life, I'll feel what I feel Let it be, let it be real Let it flow through me and wash me clean Yeah, it's not a bad thing____ It's not a bad thing____ As I'm driving home I'm thinking The worst might be over Or maybe I'm a little bit naïve But the streetlights seem brighter As I walk up to my front door N.C. I'm all alone when I turn the key N.C. And it's not a bad thing No, it's not a bad thing
