Tom's Diner by Suzanne Vega

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 (1)____________ 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 (2)__________ who has come in
She is shaking her umbrella

And I look the other way
As they are kissing their hellos
I'm (3)____________________ not to see them
And instead I (4)________ the milk

I open up the paper
There's a (5)__________ of an actor
Who had died while he was drinking
It was no one I had heard of

And I'm turning to the horoscope
And looking for the funnies
When I'm (6)______________ someone watching me
And so I raise my head

There's a woman on the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?
No she (7)________ not (8)____________ see me
Cause she sees her own reflection

And I'm (9)____________ not to notice
That she's hitching up her skirt
And while she's straightening her stockings
Her hair is getting 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...

And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...

I finish up my coffee
It's time to catch the train
