Chinese Restaurant

(albüm: Living In The Background - 1985)

The time is eight o'nine
I'm running to the line
The one that takes me down
Down to Chinatown

There's shouting in the streets
A pattering of feet
Intrigue is everywhere
Total chaos

Chinese restaurant
We're meeting here tonight
We'll say goodbye
For one more time
Chinese restaurant
Keep breaking up and mending
Seems to be the pattern of your love

A writing on the wall
A symbol tells it all
I should have known before
She was moving on

Mysterious almond eyes
Incapable of lies
I should have known before
She was moving

Chinese restaurant
We're meeting here tonight
We'll say goodbye
For one more time
Chinese restaurant
Keep breaking up and mending
Seems to be the pattern of your love

It's just like a movie
We kiss and she walks away
Alone on the sidewalk
I'm left like a fool today
It's just like a movie
And my fortune cookie says:
"Keep on moving on your way,
She'll be back here once again"
