[00:00.10] diamonds and rust joan baez
[00:26.00] Well, I'll be damned
[00:29.00] Here comes your ghost again
[00:32.40] But that's not unusual
[00:36.00] It's just that the moon is full and you happened to call
[00:44.00] And here I sit hand on the telephone
[00:50.30] Hearing a voice I'd known a couple of light years ago
[00:58.10] Heading straight for a fall
[01:05.30] As I remember your eyes
[01:08.00] Were bluer than robin's eggs
[01:12.10] My poetry was lousy you said
[01:15.00] Where are you calling from?
[01:19.00] A booth in the midwest
[01:25.00] Twenty years ago I bought you some cufflinks
[01:30.00] You brought me something
[01:34.30] We both know what memories can bring
[01:37.30] They bring diamonds and rust
[02:01.00] Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling around
[02:05.00] And snow in your hair
[02:08.20] Now you're smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over Washington Square
[02:15.20] Our breath comes out white clouds
[02:18.50] Mingles and hangs in the air
[02:22.50] Speaking strictly for me
[02:24.40] We both could have died then and there
[02:47.30] Now you're telling me
[02:50.50] You're not nostalgic
[02:53.40] well give me another word for it
[02:58.30] You who are so good with words
[03:01.00] And at keeping things vague
[03:05.00] Because I need some of that vagueness now
[03:08.10] It's all come back too clearly
[03:11.60] I was loved you dearly
[03:14.40] And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
[03:14.30] I've already paid
