What if you took the long way down To your favorite cafe on the east side of town And you get stuck at the light So you turn down a side street That you couldn't drive down Cause it's a Saturday swap meet
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la, oooh
So you get out of your car And you walk through the crowd You bargain for a teapot In the shape of an owl So you walk and you walk And you walk to the coffee shop
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la, oooh
If you're lonely and shy But you take the empty seat next to the cute guy
What if he smiled when you asked for the time? Your pen wouldn't write so he said take mine When your coffee got cold, he bought you another You didn't know it yet, but you were meant for each other
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la, oooh
What if you talked til it was time to go? He said see you around and you said who knows? But you knew in your heart that you'd see him again After walking down a side street coming from a new direction
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la, oooh
