DIAMONDS AND RUST

I'll be damned, here comes your ghost again But that's not unusual It's just that moon is full And you decided to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing the voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall Well we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Now I see you standing all around with snow in your hair Now we're looking out the window of a crummy hotel over Washington Square Our breath comes in white clouds, mingles and hangs in the air Speaking strictly for me, we both could've died then and there Now you're telling me, your not nostalgic Damn give me another word for it You were so good with words And at keeping things vague Cause I need some of that vaugeness now It's all come back too clearly, Yes I love you dearley And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid Well we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Yes we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust Diamonds, Diamonds and rust
