Tom s Dinner歌词

Suzanne Vega - Tom s Diner
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
And instead I pour the milk
And 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
