Lyrics for I Keep Goin' Back To Joe's

I keep goin' back to Joe's, to that table in the corner Sippin' wine and staring at the door Our old waiter knows we're through Still he sets a place for you, everything the way it was before I keep goin' back to Joe's but the man who plays piano Never plays your favorite melody Joe keeps busy at the bar, never asks me where you are He was there when you walked out on me Now I pray you'll walk back in and you'll say what fools we've been And we'll celebrate a happy new beginning Chances are you'll never show but you'll know just where to find me Every night until it's time to close Just in case you miss me, too I'll be there to welcome you That's why I keep going back That's why I keep goin' back to Joe's
