Out in the shiny night The rain was softly falling The tracks that ran down the boulevard Had all been washed away
Out of the silver light The past came softly calling And I remember the times we spent Inside the Sad Cafe
Oh, it seemed like a holy place Protected by amazing grace And we would sing right out loud The things we could not say
We thought we could change this world With words like "Love" and "Freedom" We were part of the lonely crowd Inside the Sad Cafe
Oh, expecting to fly We would meet on that beautiful shore In the sweet by and by
Some of their dreams came true Some just passed away And some of them stayed behind Inside the Sad Cafe
The clouds rolled in and hid that shore Now that Glory Train It don't stop here no more
Now I look at the years gone by And wonder at the powers that be I don't know why fortune smiles on some And let's the rest go free
Maybe the time has drawn The faces I recall But things in this life change very slowly If they ever change at all
No use in asking why It just turned out that way So meet me at midnight, baby Inside the Sad Cafe
Why don't you meet me at midnight, baby Inside the Sad Cafe
This song was written about The Troubadour, which is a music club in Los Angeles on Santa Monica Boulevard where many fledgling musicians would congregate. Don Henley and Glenn Frey met there and became friends, later began writing together and eventually recruited Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner to form a back up band for Linda Ronstadt. This band eventually became the Eagles.

When this crazy world Has got me going When I'm feeling hung up And strung up tight When I just feel like crying 'cause nothing's satisfying I know what I gotta get to set me right
All I need is your good, good lovin' babe That'll pick me up before I count to ten Just a little bit of your good, good lovin' Makes this big bad world look good again
We all have those days When we're downhearted And just a Is hard to do But when his happens to me And I get kind of gloomy I know what is guaranteed to see me through
All I need is your good, good lovin' babe That'll pick me up before I count to ten Just a little bit of your good, good lovin' Makes this big bad world look good again
Good, good lovin' Good, good lovin' Makes this big bad world look good again
All I need is your good, good lovin' babe That'll pick me up before I count to ten Just a little bit of your good, good lovin' Makes this big bad world look good again
