Betty's Diner (Remix) - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:00]

Written by：Carrie Newc[00:00:01]

Miranda works the late night counter[00:00:13]

In a joint called Betty's Diner[00:00:17]

Chrome and checkered tablecloths[00:00:20]

One steamy windowpane[00:00:22]

She got the job that shaky fall[00:00:26]

And after hours she'll write till dawn[00:00:29]

With a nod and smile she serves them all[00:00:32]

Here we are all in one place[00:00:38]

The wants and wounds of the human race[00:00:42]

Despair and hope sit face to face[00:00:45]

When you come in from the cold[00:00:48]

Let her fill your cup with something kind[00:00:51]

Eggs and toast like bread and wine[00:00:55]

She's heard it all so she don't mind[00:00:57]

Arthur lets his earl gray steep[00:01:08]

Since April it's been hard to sleep[00:01:10]

You know they tried most everything[00:01:14]

Yet it took her in the end[00:01:17]

Kevin tests new saxophones[00:01:20]

But swears he's leaving quality control[00:01:23]

For the Chicago scene or New Orleans[00:01:26]

Where they still play righteous horns[00:01:30]

Here we are all in one place[00:01:33]

The wants and wounds of the human race[00:01:36]

Despair and hope sit face to face[00:01:39]

When you come in from the cold[00:01:42]

Let her fill your cup with something kind[00:01:45]

Eggs and toast like bread and wine[00:01:49]

She's heard it all so she don't mind[00:01:52]

Jack studies here after work[00:02:02]

To get past high school he's the first[00:02:05]

And his large hands seem just as comfortable[00:02:09]

With a hammer or a pen[00:02:11]

Emma leaned and kissed his cheek[00:02:15]

And when she did his knees got weak[00:02:18]

Miranda smiles at 'em and winks[00:02:21]

Here we are all in one place[00:02:27]

The wants and wounds of the human race[00:02:31]

Despair and hope sit face to face[00:02:34]

When you come in from the cold[00:02:37]

Let her fill your cup with something kind[00:02:40]

Eggs and toast like bread and wine[00:02:44]

She's heard it all so she don't mind[00:02:46]

You never know who'll be your witness[00:02:57]

You never know who grants forgiveness[00:03:00]

Look to heaven or sit with us[00:03:03]

Deidra bites her lip and frowns[00:03:10]

She works the stop and go downtown[00:03:13]

She's pretty good at the crossword page[00:03:16]

And she paints her eyes blue black[00:03:19]

Tristan comes along sometimes[00:03:22]

Small for his age and he's barely five[00:03:25]

But she loves him like a mama lion[00:03:28]

Veda used to drink a lot[00:03:35]

Almost lost it all before she stopped[00:03:38]

Comes in at night with her friend Mike[00:03:42]

Who runs the crisis line[00:03:44]

Michael toured Saigon and back[00:03:48]

Hair the color of smoke and ash[00:03:51]

Their heads are bowed and hands are clasped[00:03:54]

One more storm has passed[00:03:58]

Here we are all in one place[00:04:00]

The wants and wounds of the human race[00:04:03]

Despair and hope sit face to face[00:04:07]

When you come in from the cold[00:04:10]

Let her fill your cup with something kind[00:04:12]

Eggs and toast like bread and wine[00:04:16]

She's heard it all so she don't mind[00:04:19]
