Lyrics

I'm sitting
 in the morning
 at the dinner on the corner
 I'm 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 umberlla
 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 died while he was drinking
 it was no one I had heard of
 and I'm turning to the horecscopes
 and looking for the funnies
 when i'm feeling someone watching me
 and so i raise my head
 This woman on the outside looking inside
 does she see me?
 no she does not really see me
 she sees her own reflection
 and I'm trying not to notice
 that she's hicthing up her skirt
 and while she's stragitening her stockings
 her hair has gotten wet
 This weather will continue
 through the morning as I'm listening
 to the bells of the catherdral...
 I am thinking of your voice
 I'm sitting
 in the morning
 at the dinner on the corner
 I'm 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 am pretending not to see them
 and instead I pour the milk
 I open up the paper
 there's a story of an actor
 who died while he was drinking
 it was no one I had heard of
 and I'm turning to the horoscopes
 and looking for the funnies
 when i'm feeling someone watching me
 and so i raise my head
 This 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
 This weather will continue
 through the morning
 as I'm listening
 to the bells of the cathedral...
 I am thinking of your voice
