Diamonds and Rust - Joan Baez |
| [00:01.820] |
|
| [00:28.134] |
Well I'll be damned |
| [00:30.986] |
Here comes your ghost again |
| [00:35.152] |
But that's not unusual |
| [00:38.103] |
It's just that the moon is full |
| [00:41.653] |
and you happened to call |
| [00:46.603] |
And here I sit hand on the telephone |
| [00:53.261] |
Hearing a voice I'd known a couple of light years ago |
| [01:00.522] |
Heading straight for a fall |
| [01:08.724] |
As I remember your eyes |
| [01:11.379] |
Were bluer than robin's eggs |
| [01:14.963] |
My poetry was lousy you said |
| [01:18.963] |
Where are you calling from |
| [01:22.415] |
A booth in the midwest |
| [01:28.066] |
Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks |
| [01:33.673] |
You brought me something |
| [01:37.380] |
We both know what memories can bring |
| [01:40.830] |
They bring diamonds and rust |
| [01:49.883] |
|
| [02:06.040] |
Well you burst on the scene already a legend |
| [02:11.944] |
The unwashed phenomenon |
| [02:15.695] |
The original vagabond |
| [02:19.500] |
You strayed into my arms |
| [02:23.704] |
And there you stayed temporarily lost at sea |
| [02:30.305] |
The Madonna was yours for free |
| [02:34.155] |
Yes the girl on the half-shell |
| [02:38.061] |
Could keep you unharmed |
| [02:45.963] |
Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling around |
| [02:49.515] |
And snow in your hair |
| [02:53.218] |
Now you're smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over |
| [02:56.620] |
Washington Square |
| [03:00.521] |
Our breath comes out white clouds |
| [03:03.073] |
Mingles and hangs in the air |
| [03:08.076] |
Speaking strictly for me |
| [03:09.730] |
We both could have died then and there |
| [03:22.079] |
|
| [03:34.032] |
Now you're telling me |
| [03:37.266] |
You're not nostalgic |
| [03:41.068] |
Then give me another word for it |
| [03:44.819] |
You who are so good with words |
| [03:48.175] |
And at keeping things vague |
| [03:52.775] |
Because I need some of that vagueness now |
| [03:55.179] |
It's all come back too clearly |
| [03:58.934] |
Yes I loved you dearly |
| [04:02.434] |
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust |
| [04:06.537] |
I've already paid |
