Old Brown Café

Silhouettes of people passing by
Darkness visible inside
The old geraniums outside
Dim the district's red light

Contrasts meeting in the streets
Chandeliers made of ship wheels
Only fifty people fit inside
Empty days, full nights

And I sing

Hello my old brown café
You welcome everybody, everyday
Giving comfort, forgiving who we are
Our stories belong to this bar

Innocence floats down the canals
In the alleys echo ship bells
The owner never goes to sleep
Dutch life songs softly weep

And they sing

Hello my old brown café
You welcome everybody, everyday
Giving comfort, forgiving who we are
Our stories belong to this bar

Hello my old brown café
You welcome everybody, everyday
Giving comfort, forgiving who we are
Our stories belong to this bar

Hello my old brown café
You welcome everybody, everyday
Although you don't remember me
You will stay a treasured memory
You will stay a treasured memory
