They say he came from Germany back in 1838
The conversation pauses, while the waiter pours our tea.
We can’t always both be right. We sometimes disagree.
My grandmother’s house is still there, but it isn’t the same.
Say Al, you’re a guest here today, don’t you think you ought to start this tune?

Bye, bye love.
