people watching Lyrics

"Find a seat anywhere,"

Says a waitress with red hair

I choose a table by the window

In the corner

A brightly lit restaurant

With sticky floors and menus too long

Truckers who drive, couples for the night

And I, the foreigner

(Am I) Am I here for some coffee

Or just need some loving tonight

(Maybe) Maybe it's a destination in a stationary life

People watching

People people watching

People watching watching watching

As I try to figure out

If I'll brave the rainbow trout

Concert goers laugh about

How today's tomorrow

And the couple behind me

Loose and light from hotel whiskey,

Hash out the blame, "who was it that changed"

No more pride to swallow

(Are they) Are they here for some coffee

Or just need some loving tonight

(Maybe) Maybe it's a destination in a stationary life

People watching

People people watching

People watching watching watching

For once,

I don't feel like i'm drowning

Just have to focus

On my surroundings

Take stock of life, a glare in the knife,

Think only of breakfast

All too soon my meal is through,

I've tipped and paid and re-tied my shoe

Noticed it rained, let go of some pain

As I made my exit

(Am I) Am I here for some coffee

Or just need some loving tonight

(Maybe) Maybe it's a destination in a stationary life

People watching

People people watching

People watching watching watching

People watching

People people watching

People watching watching watching
