I don’t know how he knew
I must have look so sad that night
staring at a cold cup of coffee in the heart of Bagdad

I don’t know how he knew
I was thinking about you
I don’t know how he knew
I was thinking about you

I thought he was just a guy in a diner
At some point I realized he was talking to me

“People think life is mean
They cry in their beer, they say it’s not fair
I got news for you
Nature is indifferent
It’s not that she doesn’t love you
She just doesn’t know you’re there
It’s a random and chaotic affair
And I can’t say it’s the truth
But if it makes you love life better
Then take it for you!”

This guy in a diner
Was starting to make sense to me
I wanted to tell him about the last time I saw you
Your Mia Farrow haircut on the beach that day
When the sea met the sky
The wet sand made a double
The world upside down
Who knew there’d be trouble

It is a random and chaotic affair,
It is a random and chaotic affair,
It is a random and chaotic affair.
