Lyrics:

She puts the coffee on the counter before he takes his seat
And slides the sugar closer to him. She knows he likes it sweet.
And then she lingers with busy fingers, waiting for his smile
They talk about the rainy weather, she's thinking all the while

What she wants to say is:
'I can love a man like you.
Oh, how I wish you knew.
I have seen you're good and kind,
Strong enough for two.
You could sweep me off my feet
And carry me away,'
But all she says is:
'Have a nice day.'

They talk about how unemployment is finally coming down,
The factory that's going to bring some life back to this town.
She wonders if his words mean more than what it really seems
And she's still looking for the courage to say just what she means.

What she wants to say is:
'I can love a man like you.
Oh, how I wish you knew.
I have seen you're good and kind,
Strong enough for two.
I'm more woman than I can show you
In this old café,'
But all she says is:
'Have a nice day.'

He winks once, then he's gone. She's got time to kill.
And in her dreams she's leavin' with him, she knows some day she will

What she wants to say is:
'I can love a man like you.
Oh, how I wish you knew.
I have seen you're good and kind,
strong enough for two.
I'm more woman than I can show you
in this old café,'
But all she says is:
'Have a nice day
