Smith, Caitlyn - East Side Restaurant Lyrics






We were wine stains on white sheets
Stumbling through the city streets
And I wasn't afraid, to be honest
It was smoke rings on the streetlights
First time we were getting high
And the sky was falling down around us

I thought I knew myself before I met you
I didn't want to let you in, but I let you
And now you're on the other side of town
It might as well be the moon

I knew that it wouldn't last
Tripping out in taxicabs
It all moved away too fast
Now you're off and moving on
And I'm wondering what went wrong
In an east side restaurant

The sound of silverware on dinner plates
'O sole mio' plays beneath the hum of conversation
I'm staring at an empty chair, and I still see you everywhere
And go to places that we'd go just so I can feel you

I knew that it wouldn't last
Tripping out in taxicabs
It all moved away too fast
Now you're off and moving on
And I'm wondering what went wrong
In an east side restaurant

I raise up my empty glass
And cheers whatever we had
I wish I could drink you back
Now you're off and moving on
And I'm wondering what went wrong
In an east side restaurant

    Love the original version because of the strings but I love how haunting and mysterious this one is. You can't go wrong with either version!! 💖👏

    My 13 year old brought this to my intention...he loves this song so much..I was to busy listening to house of cards..I can't listen to either track now, as he's stolen your album off me.....oh the joy of kids...

  3. G.... M....

    Reminds me of the sort of melodic crafted lyrics of joni Mitchell in the seventies.. Pure genius.

  4. M.... ....

    Why is this song not a massive hit? The entire song is fantastic but the choruses are electrifying.

    M.... ....

    It's so good it will never be popular. Like most great music.
