Songtext
0:26Well I'll be d**ned
0:29Here comes your ghost again
0:33But that's not unusual
0:36It's just that the moon is full
0:40And you happened to call
0:44And here I sit
0:47Hand on the telephone
0:51Hearing a voice I'd known
0:54A couple of light years ago
0:58Heading straight for a fall
1:06As I remember your eyes
1:08Were bluer than Robin's eggs
1:12My poetry was lousy you said
1:16Where are you calling from
1:20A booth in the midwest
1:25Twenty years ago
1:27I bought you some cufflinks
1:31You brought me something
1:34We both know what memories can bring
1:38They bring diamonds and rust
2:01Now I see you standing
2:02With brown leaves falling all around
2:05And snow in your hair
2:08Now you're smiling out the window
2:10Of that crummy hotel
2:11Over Washington Square
2:16Our breath comes out white clouds
2:18Mingles and hangs in the air
2:23Speaking strictly for me
2:25We both could have died then and there
2:48Now you're telling me
2:51You're not nostalgic
2:54Well give me another word for it
2:58You who are so good with words
3:02And at keeping things vague
3:06Because I need some of that vagueness now
3:08It's all come back too clearly
3:12I was loved you dearly
3:16And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
3:20I've already paid
Well I'll be d**ned 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 all 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
