Tom's Diner by Suzanne Vega

I am sitting in the morning
At the diner on the corner
I am (1)______________ at the counter
For the man to (2)________ the coffee

And he (3)__________ it (4)________ halfway
And (5)____________ I even argue
He is looking out the window
At (6)________________ coming in

"It is always (7)________ to see you"
Says the man (8)____________ the counter
To the woman who has (9)________ in
She is shaking her umbrella

And I look the (10)__________ way
As they are (11)______________ (12)__________ hellos
I'm pretending not to see them
And instead I (13)________ the milk

I open up the paper
There's a (14)__________ of an actor
Who had died (15)__________ he was drinking
It was no one I had (16)__________ of

And I'm turning to the horoscope
And looking for the funnies
When I'm feeling someone watching me
And so I raise my head

There's a (17)__________ on the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?
No she does not really see me
Cause she (18)________ her own reflection

And I'm trying not to notice
That she's (19)________________ up her skirt
And while she's straightening her stockings
Her (20)________ is getting wet

Oh, this (21)________ 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 (22)________ to (23)__________ the train
