Tom's Diner - 7" Version

[00:34.17] I am sitting in the morning at the diner on the corner
[00:39.16] I am waiting at the counter for the man to pour the coffee
[00:43.87] And he fills it only halfway
[00:46.27] And before I even argue
[00:48.83] He is looking out the window at somebody coming in
[00:54.61]
[01:03.20] "It is always nice to see you," says the man behind the counter
[01:08.03] To the woman who has come in
[01:10.41] She is shaking her umbrella
[01:13.12] And I look the other way as they are kissing their hellos
[01:17.73] And I'm pretending not to see them
[01:20.34] And instead I pour the milk
[01:23.69]
[01:32.64] I open up the paper
[01:34.71] There's a story of an actor who had died while he was drinking
[01:39.66] He was no one I had heard of
[01:42.28] And I'm turning to the horoscope
[01:44.66] And looking for the funnies
[01:47.09] When I'm feeling someone watching me
[01:49.67] And so I raise my head
[01:52.97]
[02:13.55] There's a woman on the outside looking inside
[02:17.08] Does she see me?
[02:18.34] No, she does not really see me
[02:20.62] 'Cause she sees her own reflection
[02:23.22] And I'm trying not to notice
[02:25.49] That she's hitching up her skirt
[02:27.97] And while she's straightening her stockings
[02:30.84] Her hair is getting wet
[02:34.65]
[02:46.86] Oh, this rain, it will continue through the morning
[02:50.95] As I'm listening to the bells of the cathedral
[02:56.02]
[02:58.34] I am thinking of your voice
[03:01.05]
