| [00:28.050] |
Well I'll be damned |
| [00:31.778] |
Here comes your ghost again |
| [00:34.470] |
But that's not unusual |
| [00:37.918] |
It's just that the moon is full |
| [00:42.089] |
And you happened to call |
| [00:46.507] |
And here I sit |
| [00:48.827] |
Hand on the telephone |
| [00:52.797] |
Hearing a voice I'd known |
| [00:55.708] |
A couple of light years ago |
| [00:59.857] |
Heading straight for a fall |
| [01:08.579] |
As I remember your eyes |
| [01:11.338] |
Were bluer than robin's eggs |
| [01:14.088] |
My poetry was lousy you said |
| [01:18.768] |
Where are you calling from? |
| [01:22.978] |
A booth in the midwest |
| [01:28.818] |
Ten years ago |
| [01:30.258] |
I bought you some cufflinks |
| [01:33.859] |
You brought me something |
| [01:37.990] |
We both know what memories can bring |
| [01:40.959] |
They bring diamonds and rust |
| [02:07.080] |
Well you burst on the scene |
| [02:08.600] |
Already a legend |
| [02:11.990] |
The unwashed phenomenon |
| [02:15.750] |
The original vagabond |
| [02:19.670] |
You strayed into my arms |
| [02:24.350] |
And there you stayed |
| [02:27.250] |
Temporarily lost at sea |
| [02:30.340] |
The Madonna was yours for free |
| [02:35.000] |
Yes the girl on the half-shell |
| [02:37.730] |
Could keep you unharmed |
| [02:46.220] |
Now I see you standing |
| [02:47.640] |
With brown leaves falling around |
| [02:49.400] |
And snow in your hair |
| [02:52.990] |
Now you're smiling out the window |
| [02:55.100] |
Of that crummy hotel |
| [02:56.470] |
Over Washington Square |
| [03:00.610] |
Our breath.es out white clouds |
| [03:02.670] |
Mingles and hangs in the air |
| [03:08.700] |
Speaking strictly for me |
| [03:11.280] |
We both could have died then and there |
| [03:34.780] |
Now you're telling me |
| [03:37.860] |
You're not nostalgic |
| [03:41.260] |
Then give me another word for it |
| [03:45.400] |
You who are so good with words |
| [03:48.720] |
And at keeping things vague |
| [03:53.900] |
Because I need some of that vagueness now |
| [03:55.830] |
It's all.e back too clearly |
| [03:59.300] |
Yes I loved you dearly |
| [04:03.200] |
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust |
| [04:06.680] |
I've already paid |
