Suzzane 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
but he fills it only half way
and before i even argue
he is looking at 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 move the other way
as they are kissing their hellos
and i'm pretending not to see them
and instead i pour the milk

i open up the paper
there is a story of an actor
who had died while he was drinking
it was noone i had heard of
and i'm turning to the horoscope
and looking for the funnies
but 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 no#

that she's____ching up her skirt
and while she's straightening her stockings
her hair has gotten wet

oh this rain will continue
through the morning as i'm listening
to the bells of the cathedral
i am thinking of your voice

oooh boy i loved you so
oooh boy i loved you so, never ever gonna let you got to notice
that she's____ching up her skirt
and while she's straightening her stockings

oh this rain will continue
through the morning as i'm listening
to the bells of the cathedral
i am thinking of your voice

oooh boy i loved you so
oooh boy i loved you so, never ever gonna let you go
