[al:Ghost of a Rose] |
| [00:14.66] |
Well I'll be damned |
| [00:16.81] |
Here comes your ghost again |
| [00:20.61] |
But that's not unusual |
| [00:23.87] |
It's just that the moon is full |
| [00:27.76] |
And you happened to call |
| [00:35.57] |
And here I sit |
| [00:37.69] |
Hand on the telephone |
| [00:41.58] |
Hearing a voice I'd known |
| [00:45.19] |
A couple of light years ago |
| [00:48.62] |
Heading straight for a fall |
| [00:56.65] |
As I remember your eyes |
| [00:59.28] |
Were bluer than robin's eggs |
| [01:02.66] |
My poetry was lousy you said |
| [01:06.57] |
Where are you calling from? |
| [01:09.74] |
A booth in the midwest |
| [01:17.73] |
Ten years ago |
| [01:19.88] |
I bought you some cufflinks |
| [01:23.36] |
You brought me something |
| [01:26.95] |
We both know what memories can bring |
| [01:32.50] |
They bring diamonds and rust |
| [01:47.74] |
Well you burst on the scene |
| [01:49.98] |
Already a legend |
| [01:53.44] |
The unwashed phenomenon |
| [01:56.81] |
The original vagabond |
| [02:00.23] |
You strayed into my arms |
| [02:05.22] |
And there you stayed |
| [02:07.80] |
Temporarily lost at sea |
| [02:10.96] |
The Madonna was yours for free |
| [02:14.29] |
Yes the girl on the half-shell |
| [02:17.96] |
Would keep you unharmed |
| [02:25.81] |
Now I see you standing |
| [02:27.18] |
With brown leaves falling around |
| [02:28.57] |
And snow in your hair |
| [02:32.18] |
Now you're smiling out the window |
| [02:34.37] |
Of that crummy hotel |
| [02:35.77] |
Over Washington Square |
| [02:39.67] |
Our breath comes out white clouds |
| [02:41.84] |
Mingles and hangs in the air |
| [02:46.55] |
Speaking strictly for me |
| [02:48.63] |
We both could have died then and there |
| [03:01.10] |
Now you're telling me |
| [03:03.23] |
You're not nostalgic |
| [03:06.79] |
Then give me another word for it |
| [03:10.26] |
You who are so good with words |
| [03:13.86] |
And at keeping things vague |
| [03:18.36] |
Because I need some of that vagueness now |
| [03:20.55] |
It's all come back too clearly |
| [03:24.11] |
Yes I loved you dearly |
| [03:28.34] |
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust |
| [03:33.21] |
I've already paid |
