Paroles
0:30Well I'll be damned
0:33Here comes your ghost again
0:37But that's not unusual
0:40It's just that the moon is full
0:44And you happened to call
0:48And here I sit
0:51Hand on the telephone
0:55Hearing a voice I'd known
0:59A couple of light years ago
1:03Heading straight for a fall
1:11As I remember your eyes
1:14Were bluer than robin's eggs
1:17My poetry was lousy you said
1:21Where are you calling from
1:25A booth in the midwest
1:30Ten years ago
1:32I bought you some cufflinks
1:36You brought me something
1:40We both know what memories can bring
1:43They bring diamonds and rust
2:08Well you burst on the scene
2:11Already a legend
2:15The unwashed phenomenon
2:18The original vagabond
2:22You strayed into my arms
2:26And there you stayed
2:29Temporarily lost at sea
2:33The Madonna was yours for free
2:36Yes the girl on the half-shell
2:40Would keep you unharmed
2:48Now I see you standing
2:50With brown leaves falling around
2:52And snow in your hair
2:55Now you're smiling out the window
2:57Of that crummy hotel
2:58Over Washington Square
3:03Our breath comes out white clouds
3:05Mingles and hangs in the air
3:10Speaking strictly for me
3:12We both could have died then and there
3:36Now you're telling me
3:39You're not nostalgic
3:43Then give me another word for it
3:47You who are so good with words
3:51And at keeping things vague
3:55Because I need some of that vagueness now
3:58It's all come back too clearly
4:01Yes I loved you dearly
4:05And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
4:09I've already paid
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 Ten years ago I bought you some cufflinks You brought me something We both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Well you burst on the scene Already a legend The unwashed phenomenon The original vagabond You strayed into my arms And there you stayed Temporarily lost at sea The Madonna was yours for free Yes the girl on the half-shell Would keep you unharmed 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 Then 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 Yes I loved you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust I've already paid
