Tom Paxton The Things I Notice Now Lyrics

Rained again last night
Streets are slowly drying
Sunlight's not too bright
I don't believe it's trying
I never used to care
It wouldn't cross my mind
You'd be surprised, the things I notice now
The mailman's overdue
Man upstairs is typin'
My neighbour's has the flu
And his wife has started gripin'
I never used to care
It wouldn't cross my mind
You'd be surprised, the things I notice now
I'm sittin' in the window seat
Just watchin' my day walk by
There's a lot of people I should meet
If I could find a reason why
There's a whole lot of things
I oughta get up and do
Like finding you
Mornin' streets are jammed Taxi driver's swearin'
I think his rage is shammed
He looks like he's past carin'
I never used to care
It wouldn't cross my mind
You'd be surprised, the things I notice now
I'm going to get myself in line
I'm gonna get a hold on things
I'm probably going to be just fine
We'll see what tomorrow brings
There's a whole lot of things
I've gotta get up and do
Like finding you
Rained again last night
Streets are slowly drying
Sunlight's not too bright
I don't believe it's tryin'
I never used to care
It wouldn't cross my mind
You'd be surprised, the things I notice now
