| [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 |
