The Truth About Love - Stephen Cummings

The waitress was pulling on her overcoat

And playing with her hair

The piano players eyes were empty

Almost like he wasn't there

The bartender was clearing up

Bouncers had gone to bed

The waitress was primping herself

In the mirror

When the customer walked up and said

He said

I've been coming to this bar

Almost every week

I wanted to ask you out

But I couldn't work up

The nerve to speak

I thought it wouldn't happen

Don't know why I didn't ask before

The waitress rolled her eyes

As together they hurried out the door

The truth about love

Her body was deceptive

She had a graceful way of moving

It was at the same time

Both exciting and soothing

Her eyes were soft brown

And her skin tone pearly white

And he did woo her under the stars

The entire night

The truth about love

Three months later they were married

With all of the accompanying stuff

And in their eyes you could see

The truth about love

She found employment

In a coffee shop downtown

And he'd go in there to eat lunch

And just to fool around

The truth about love

They played a game

The customer and the waitress

And she'd always make him wait

Pretending they didn't know each other

And he'd try to make a date

And so it went for years

Then things began to change

He stopped dropping in for lunch

And she started acting strange

The truth about love

The truth about love

And at home the customer

And the waitress game took a weird twist

And now and then boss wondered

What they'd missed

She tried not to worry

Couldn't take it anymore

She whispered I guess we should talk

And sat cross legged on the floor

The truth about love

Don't get pissed off she said

But I think we made a mistake

All those years ago

I'm not pissed off he said

Can't we talk about it tomorrow

If you think this will

Make you happy go right ahead

And off they went to sleep

In separate beds

The truth about love

So for seven years the customer

And the waitress

Went their separate ways

At first it was better like this

But they both had their bad days

At any rate they collided on a street

The other night

And went out to dinner together

You much to their surprise

The truth about love

In honour of the occasion

The waitress let him kiss her

At her front door

He tenderly took her face in his hands

And he begged for more

I'm sick of taking out girls

Whose emotions are as mangled as mine

Maybe we should try again

Or at least go out to dinner sometime

The truth about love

Yeah that's the truth about love

The crazy truth about love

The sick truth about love

Yeah that's the truth about love

Yeah the truth about love

Yeah that's the truth about love
