Pousse Cafe

I sat and sip Pousse Cafe

The others think it's just a drink

How can they know of a lesson it starts

It's like my heart it's in 3 parts

Why do i drink Pousse Cafe

Oh I don't know it once was so

I can't tell that it's a toast to a grand

It's on my lips how near you see

Once you're lips caress me tenderly

All that love love that would not go astray

And tears are just a memory

And a lonely drink of Pousse Cafe

Only one more Pousse Cafe

An aperitif can't bring relief

I'm a moth who gone to close to the flame

I play for keeps you play the game

And so I linger here and sip Pousse Cafe
