Hey, Providence Come and share a chocolate sundae with me My innocence has stood me up There's plenty here for two Ask the waitress for another spoon Sit down here let her fill your coffee cup We'll sit and watch the world go buy Press our noses against the windowpane Sometimes this city makes me cry But I guess I can't complain Guess I can't complain, hey Providence? When we're finished we can take a walk in the park Just stroll along and feed the pigeons It's been so long since we really had a chance to talk
I've got time now if you're willing Seems I never know What's coming around the bend No I never know Hey Providence could you fill me in? Could you fill me in Providence? Hey thanks for stopping by I know you've got to go This one's on me you can get it next time Let's not let it be so long 'Cause you never know What's coming around the bend No you never know, you never know where, you never know when You never know Providence
