I am thinking of your voice
And of burning like bling bling
I'm thinking once upon a time
Before the rain began

Ref. Tu tu tu ru...

As moaning people start getting busy
Look at them it's just so crazy!
They all trap sour by their race
To even recognize their mothers faces
Business is all they really care of
Deadlines are setting all they lifes
While my mind is be in corner
By a smaller world in a coffee

I am sitting in the morning
At the diner on the corner
I am waiting at the counter
For the man to pour the coffee
And he fills it only halfaway
And before I even argue
He is looking at the window
At somebody coming in

Ref. Tu tu tu...

It is always nice to see you
Says the man behind the counter
To the woman who has come in
She is shaking her umbrella
And I look the other way
As they are kissin their hello's
And I'm pretending not to see them
Instead I pour the milk

Ref. Tu...

And then suddenly the world just freeze
Like someone called curtains up
And they're playing difrent comedies
One the same stage in the very same time
Nothing seems to be important
While I watch lives passing by
Everything seems now so distant
From this time your world in this coffe time

I open up the paper
There's a story of an actor
Who had died while he was drinking
It was no one I had heard of
And I'm turning to the horoscope
And looking for the funnies
When I'm feeling someone watching me
And so I raise my head

Ref. Tu...

There's a woman on the outside looking inside
Does she see me? No she does not really see me
Cause she sees her own reflection
And I'm trying not to notice
That she's hitching up her skirt
And while she's straigtening her stockings
Her hair is getting wet

Ref. Tu...

Oh, this rain it will continue
Through the morning as I'm listening
To the bells of the cathedral
By a smaller world in coffee
And I finish up my coffee
And it's time to catch the train...
