Artist: Ani DiFranco Album: Out Of Range (1994) Title: The Diner
Lyrics The Dineri'm calling from the diner
the diner on the corner
i ordered two coffees
one is for you
i was hoping you'd join me
'cause i ain't got no money
and i really miss you
i should mention that too
yes i know what time it is
in fact i just checked
i even know the date
and the month and the year
i know i haven't been sleeping
and when i do
i just dream of you dear
i miss watching you drool on your pillow
i miss watching you pull on your clothes
i miss listening to you in the bathroom
flushing the toilet blowing your nose
i'm calling from the diner
the diner on the corner
i ordered two coffees
one is for you
and the cups are so close
that the steam is rising
in one stream
how are you
i think yer the least fucked up
person i've ever met
and that may be as close to the real thing
as i'm ever gonna get
but my quarter's gonna run out now
or so i'm told i
guess i'd better go sit down
i will wait for you
'till my coffee gets cold |
