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. And I'm pretending not to see them and 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 heard of
And I'm turning to the horscope and looking for the funnines 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
