=Suzanne Vega » Tom's Diner Lyrics=

I **am sitting** In the morning At the diner On the corner

I **am waiting** At the counter For the man To pour the coffee

And he **fills** it Only halfway And before I even argue

He **is looking** Out the window At somebody Coming in

"It is always Nice to see you" **Says** the man Behind the counter

To the woman Who has come in She **is shaking** Her umbrella

And I **look** The other way As they **are kissing** Their hellos

I'm **pretending** Not to see them Instead I **pour** the milk

I **open** Up the paper There's a story Of an actor

Who had died While he was drinking It was no one I had heard of

And I'm **turning** To the horoscope And **looking** For the funnies

When I'm **feeling** Someone **watching** me And so  I **raise** my head

There's a woman On the outside Looking inside **Does** she see me?

No she **does not** Really see me Cause she **sees** Her own reflection

And I'**m trying** Not to notice That she's **hitching** Up her skirt

And while she's **Straightening** her stockings Her hair Has gotten wet

Oh, this rain It will continue Through the morning As I'm **listening**

To the bells Of the cathedral I **am thinking** Of your voice...

And of the midnight picnic Once upon a time Before the rain began...

I **finish up** my coffee It's time to catch the train
