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

Says the man behind the counter
To the woman who has come in
She is shaking her umbrella

As they are kissing their hellos

And instead I pour the milk

Who had died while he was drinking

Looking inside, does she see me?
No, she does not really see me
'Cause she sees her own reflection

Her hair has gotten wet
