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 halfway
And before I even argue
He is looking out the window
At somebody coming in

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 kissing their hellos
And I'm pretending not to see them
And instead I pour the milk

Oh no, it is always nice to see you
It is always nice to see you
'Cause it's always nice to see you
It is always nice to see you
It is al-al-always nice
Al-al-always nice

It's always nice to see you
Always nice to see you
It is al-al-always nice
Oh, it is al-al-always nice
Oh, it is always nice to see you

Always nice
It's always nice to see you
Oh, it is always nice to see you
Always nice to see you
