I am sitting in the morning, 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 come 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 [C#m] pillows,
and I am pretending not to see them,
and [F#] instead I pour the milk.

What he was drinking was no one I had heard of,
and I am turning to [C#m] the horoscope,
[F#m] and I am looking for the funnies [F#m] when I am feeling someone watching me.
And so I raise my head.

[C#m] There [F#m] _ _ is a woman on the outside looking inside.
Does she see me?
No, she does not.
She does not see me, she sees her own reflection,
and I am trying not to notice that she is stitching up [C#m] her skirt,
and while [F#m] she straightens her stockings, her hair has gotten wet. _ _ _
