The Diner Lyrics by 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
