diamonds and rust joan baez
Well, I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full and you happened to call
And here I sit hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I'd known a couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall
As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin's eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the midwest
Twenty years ago I bought you some cufflinks
You brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust
Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling around
And snow in your hair
Now you're smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there
Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
well give me another word for it
You who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague
Because I need some of that vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
I was loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
I've already paid
