[00:25.79]Well I'll be damned [00:28.47]Here comes...
[00:25.79]Well I'll be damned
[00:28.47]Here comes your ghost again
[00:31.96]But that's not unusual
[00:35.19]It's just that the moon is full
[00:38.54]And you happened to call
[00:43.29]And here I sit
[00:45.54]Hand on the telephone
[00:49.16]Hearing a voice I'd known
[00:52.47]A couple of light years ago
[00:56.12]Heading straight for a fall
[00:58.80]
[01:03.70]As I remember your eyes
[01:06.52]Were bluer than robin's eggs
[01:09.80]My poetry was lousy you said
[01:13.37]Where are you calling from
[01:16.65]A booth in the midwest
[01:21.71]
[01:25.25]Ten years ago
[01:26.89]I bought you some cufflinks
[01:30.36]You brought me something
[01:33.70]We both know what memories can bring
[01:37.06]They bring diamonds and rust
[01:41.59]
[02:00.11]Well you burst on the scene
[02:02.68]Already a legend
[02:05.89]The unwashed phenomenon
[02:09.33]The original vagabond
[02:12.82]You strayed into my arms
[02:17.28]And there you stayed
[02:19.68]Temporarily lost at sea
[02:23.35]The Madonna was yours for free
[02:26.94]Yes the girl on the half-shell
[02:30.43]Could keep you unharmed
[02:33.67]
[02:37.70]Now I see you standing
[02:39.30]With brown leaves falling around
[02:40.59]And snow in your hair
[02:44.52]Now you're smiling out the window
[02:46.41]Of that crummy hotel
[02:47.69]Over Washington Square
[02:51.64]Our breath comes out white clouds
[02:54.21]Mingles and hangs in the air
[02:58.48]Speaking strictly for me
[03:00.57]We both could have died then and there
[03:05.82]
[03:22.34]Now you're telling me
[03:25.28]You're not nostalgic
[03:29.44]Then give me another word for it
[03:32.44]You who are so good with words
[03:35.60]And at keeping things vague
[03:39.86]Because I need some of that vagueness now
[03:42.24]It's all come back too clearly
[03:45.63]I loved you dearly
[03:49.12]And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
[03:53.34]I've already paid
[03:58.63]
