Table for One Songtext
von Frans Jansenn

They asked if I′d be dining alone
I said, "Of course this heart's fully grown."
A single seat, a perfect view
And guess who′s not sitting across from you?

The waiter smiled, a touch of grace
Poured me champagne in your old place
No tears, no fight, no déjà vu
Just linen napkins and table for two... minus you

Table for one, candlelight and fun
No awkward small talk when dinner's begun
No waiting for texts that never will come
Just me and my steak, and I'm never glum
So raise a toast to freedom and sun
Life tastes better at table for one


Remember how you hated red wine?
Well now, I drink two glasses mine and mine
No checking my phone for your "running late"
Now the only clock I hear is the one on my plate

I used to beg for crumbs of love
Now I dine like I′m sent from above
And the bill? Oh, it′s sweet
When you're not paying with your self-esteem

Table for one, dessert just begun
I′ll order that cake you always shunned
No drama, no games, no battle to be won
Just jazz in the air and forks having fun
This solo is gold, not a thing to outrun
Yes, I'm loving this... table for one

So if love′s a game, I've already won
Found my peace at table for one
