Tom's Dinner

80年代的老歌卻如此時尚
在ICRT撥歌時 記住時間到網站上找出來的
終於知道這首是Suzanne Vega經典歌曲

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
I'm pretending not to see them
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 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 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 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...
