[00:01.01]Composed by：Joan Baez

[00:01.47]
[00:22.33]Well I'll be d**ned

[00:24.65]
[00:25.21]Here comes your ghost again

[00:28.92]But that's not unusual

[00:32.41]It's just that the moon is full

[00:35.81]And you happened to call

[00:39.30]
[00:40.89]And here I sit

[00:42.93]
[00:43.69]Hand on the telephone

[00:47.30]Hearing a voice I'd known

[00:50.25]
[00:50.85]A couple of light years ago

[00:54.40]Heading straight for a fall

[00:57.93]
[00:59.37]As I remember your eyes

[01:02.18]Were bluer than robin's eggs

[01:05.06]
[01:05.57]My poetry was lousy you said

[01:08.82]
[01:09.44]Where are you calling from

[01:12.53]
[01:13.12]A booth in the midwest

[01:16.03]
[01:17.92]Ten years ago

[01:19.72]
[01:20.41]I bought you some cufflinks

[01:23.26]
[01:24.20]You brought me something

[01:26.97]
[01:27.86]We both know what memories can bring

[01:33.49]
[01:34.85]They bring diamonds and rust

[01:39.58]
[01:50.29]Diamonds and rust

[01:54.71]
[02:09.43]Well you burst on the scene

[02:11.74]
[02:12.40]Already a legend

[02:15.07]
[02:15.82]The unwashed phenomenon

[02:19.07]
[02:19.60]The original vagabond

[02:22.89]You strayed into my arms

[02:26.72]
[02:27.95]And there you stayed

[02:29.76]
[02:30.83]Temporarily lost at sea

[02:33.78]
[02:34.32]The Madonna was yours for free

[02:37.83]Yes the girl on the half-shell

[02:40.95]
[02:41.49]Could keep you unharmed

[02:45.39]
[02:46.01]Now I see you standing all around

[02:49.11]With snow in your hair

[02:52.11]
[02:53.31]Now you're smiling out the window

[02:55.41]Of that hotel

[02:56.28]Over Washington Square

[02:59.53]
[03:01.10]Our breath comes out white clouds

[03:03.75]Mingles and hangs in the air

[03:07.31]
[03:08.16]Speaking strictly for me

[03:10.95]We both could have died then and there

[03:17.18]
[03:19.34]Now you're telling me

[03:22.09]You're not nostalgic

[03:25.51]
[03:26.10]Then give me another word for it

[03:29.47]You who are so good with words

[03:33.19]And at keeping things vague

[03:36.82]
[03:37.49]'Cause I need some of that vagueness now

[03:41.22]It's all come back too clearly

[03:44.37]Yes I loved you dearly

[03:47.86]And if you're offering me diamonds and rust

[03:53.14]
[03:54.54]I already d**ned

[04:00.40]
[04:05.62]I already babe

[04:09.56]
[04:10.57]Diamonds and rust

[04:14.70]
[04:24.42]Diamonds and rust

[04:32.95]
[05:04.67]Diamonds and rust
