Tom’s Diner Lyrics
I am sitting
In the morning
At the ( dinner )
On the ( corner )
I am waiting
At the ( counter )
For the man
To ( pour ) the coffee
And he ( fill ) it
Only ( halfway )
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 look
The other way
As they are ( kissing )
Their ( hello )
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 ( diver?? )
While he was drinking
It was no one
I had heard of
And I'm ( turning )
To the ( hurriscope??? )
And looking
For the ( funny )
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 ( only ) ( reflection )
And I'm trying
Not to notice
That she's ( watching )
Up her ( skirt )
And while she's
( straightening ) her ( stocking??? )
Her hair
Has gotten ( wet )
Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I'm ( listening )
To the ( bell )
Of the ( ???)
I am thinking
Of your ( voice )...
And of the ( midnight ) ( picnic )
Once upon a time
Before the ( rain ) began...
I finish ( all ) my coffee
It's time to ( catch ) the ( rain )
