    The narrator is sitting at a diner drinking coffee when a woman outside catches their attention. As the woman looks inside, she sees only her own reflection. A man behind the counter greets a woman who has come in out of the rain. While the two exchange greetings, the narrator pretends not to notice them and instead reads the newspaper, looking to the horoscope and funnies to pass the time until they finish their coffee and catch the train.

    I was sitting in the morning When I _________________ someone


    watching me and so I raised my head
    At the diner on the corner
    There was a woman on the outside
    I __________________ at the counter
    Looking inside, did she see me?
    For the man to pour the coffee
    No, she did not really see me
    And he filled it only halfway
    ‘Cause she saw her own reflection
    And before I even argue
    And I _______________ not to notice
    He ________________ out the
    window That she was hitching up her skirt

    At somebody coming in And while she __________________


    her stockings, her hair got wet

    "It is always nice to see you"


    Oh, this rain it will continue
    Said the man behind the counter
    Through the morning as I ___________
    To the woman who has come in to the bells of the cathedral
    She _________________ her umbrella I _________________ of your voice...
    And I looked the other way

    As they ______________ their hellos And of the midnight picnic


    I was pretending not to see them Once upon a time
    Instead I poured the milk Before the rain began...

    I opened up the paper I finished up my coffee


    There's a story of an actor It was time to catch the train.
    Who had died while he was drinking

    It was no one I had heard of

    And I ____________ to the horoscope

    And looking for the funnies
