Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega

[00:01.000]I am sitting
[00:02.000]In the morning
[00:03.000]At the diner
[00:04.000]On the corner
[00:05.000]I am waiting
[00:06.000]At the counter
[00:08.000]For the man
[00:09.000]To pour the coffee
[00:10.000]And he fills it
[00:11.000]Only halfway
[00:13.000]And before
[00:14.000]I even argue
[00:15.000]He is looking
[00:16.000]Out the window
[00:17.000]At somebody
[00:18.000]Coming in
[00:22.000]It is always
[00:23.000]Nice to see you
[00:24.000]Says the man
[00:25.000]Behind the counter
[00:27.000]To the woman
[00:28.000]Who has come in
[00:29.000]She is shaking
[00:30.000]Her umbrella
[00:32.000]And I look
[00:33.000]The other way
[00:34.000]As they are kissing
[00:35.000]Their hellos
[00:36.000]I'm pretending
[00:37.000]Not to see them
[00:39.000]And Instead
[00:40.000]I pour the milk
[00:44.000]I open
[00:45.000]Up the paper
[00:46.000]There's a story
[00:47.000]Of an actor
[00:48.000]Who had died
[00:49.000]While he was drinking
[00:51.000]He was no one
[00:52.000]I had heard of
[00:52.700]And I'm turning
[00:52.500]To the horoscope
[00:53.900]And looking
[00:55.800]For the funnies
[00:57.400]When I'm feeling
[00:58.400]Someone watching me
[01:02.100]And so
[01:03.100]I raise my head
[01:05.100]There's a woman
[01:06.100]On the outside
[01:07.100]Looking inside
[01:07.500]Does she see me?
[01:09.500]No she does not
[01:10.500]Really see me
[01:11.500]Cause she sees
[01:12.500]Her own reflection
[01:13.500]And I'm trying
[01:14.900]Not to notice
[01:15.900]That she's hitching
[01:16.900]Up her skirt
[01:17.900]And while she's
[01:18.900]Straightening her stockings
[01:20.900]Her hair
[01:21.900]Is getting wet
[01:24.900]Oh, this rain
[01:26.900]It will continue
[01:28.900]Through the morning
[01:29.900]As I'm listening
[01:30.900]To the bells
[01:31.900]Of the cathedral
[01:36.900]I am thinking
[01:38.900]Of your voice...
[01:41.900]And of the midnight picnic
[01:44.900]Once upon a time
[01:46.900]Before the rain began...
[01:52.900]I finish up my coffee
[01:54.900]It's time to catch the train
