Lyrics
I'll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you decided to call
So here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing a 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
Snow in your hair
See you looking out the window of a crummy hotel
Over Washington Square
Your breath blows out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaks strictly for me
We both should have died then and there
Now you're telling me
You're not nostalgic
Well then, give me another word for it
You were so good with words
And at keeping things vague
'Cause I need some of that bigness now
That's all come back too clearly
Yes, I loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
Well, I've already paid
Yes, 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
No more, no more
Diamonds
Diamonds and rust
