Ani Difranco - The Diner lyrics

I'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 go 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

the cups are so close

the steam is rising

in one stream

how are you

I think you're 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

and wait for you

til my coffee gets cold
