[00:26.00]I'll be damned
[00:29.10]Here comes your ghost again
[00:32.00]But that's not unusual
[00:35.30]It's just that the moon is full
[00:39.00]And you happened to call
[00:43.50]And here I sit
[00:46.30]Hand on the telephone
[00:50.00]Hearing a voice I'd known
[00:54.00]A couple of light years ago
[00:57.00]Heading straight for a fall
[01:05.00]As I remember your eyes
[01:08.30]Were bluer than robin's eggs
[01:11.30]My poetry was lousy you said
[01:15.30]Where are you calling from “
[01:18.30]A booth in the midwest “
[01:24.00]Ten years ago
[01:25.10]I bought you some cufflinks
[01:29.00]You brought me something
[01:33.30]We both know what memories can bring
[01:36.30]They bring diamonds and rust
[02:00.30]Well you burst on the scene
[02:02.30]Already a legend
[02:06.30]The unwashed phenomenon
[02:10.00]The original vagabond
[02:13.30]You strayed into my arms
[02:18.30]And there you stayed
[02:21.00]Temporarily lost at sea
[02:24.30]The Madonna was yours for free
[02:28.00]Yes the girl on the half-shell
[02:32.00]Could keep you unharmed
[02:39.00]Now I see you standing
[02:40.00]With brown leaves falling around
[02:42.00]And snow in your hair
[02:46.30]Now you're smiling out the window
[02:48.00]Of that crummy hotel
[02:49.00]Over Washington Square
[02:51.00]Our breath comes out white clouds
[02:53.30]Mingles and hangs in the air
[03:00.30]Speaking strictly for me
[03:03.00]We both could have died then and there
[03:25.30]
[03:28.30]You're not nostalgic
[03:31.30]Then give me another word for it
[03:35.30]You who are so good with words
[03:39.00]And at keeping things vague
[03:43.30]Because I need some of that vagueness now
[03:46.30]It's all come back too clearly
[03:49.30]Yes I loved you dearly
[03:53.00]And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
[03:57.00]I've already paid
