Table for Two Lyrics by Peter Gallway

On the Bandstand

0

Table for two in the corner, monsieur
Bring us a drink, we'll order later, thank you
It's been ten long years, you know, give or take a few
Perhaps we'll chance a dance if you'll make it slow and cool

So you were married twice
I've shared my life, but once
And you're in social work now
And commute to the Bronx

Yes, I'm well, a bit thin
But there's music carrying
And I've been living upstate
With a dog as my friend

Table for two
Light the candle and leave us, monsieur
A round for the nervousness
A moment of happiness
In the red-checkered half-light
Of this whispering room

Table for two
Table for two
Table for two

All the growing pains of school, our kiss and first caress
Off we went to college, where our paths lost their grasp
A cold and bitter New Year's when I broke your heart at last
If only I had known or been able to guess

But it seems all in a dream
Like the last scene in Splendor in the Grass
When their eyes met and silently knew
That so goes the future, so went the past
If we were stopped in mid-sentence
Then it's completed at last

At our table for two
Yes, we'll order now, monsieur
Veal for the both of us
And some wine for a toast to us
To love never lost
And our lives forever crossed
There's no need for real sadness
Just a melancholy blues
At our checkered corner table for two

Table for two
Table for two
Table for two
