I'll be ******
Here comes your ghost again
But that's not unusual
It's just that the moon is full
And you decided to call
Here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing the voice I'd known
A couple of light years ago
Headed 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 standin'
all around
with snow in your hair
Now we're smilin' out the
window of the crummy hotel
over Washington Square
Our breath comes in
white clouds
Mingles and hangs
in the air
Speakin' strictly for me
We both could've died
then and there
Yeah
Now you're tellin' me
You're not nostalgic
Then give me another word
for it
You were so good with words
And at keeping things vague
'Cause I need some of that
vagueness now
It's all come back too clearly
I love you dearly
And if you're offering me
diamonds and rust
I've already paid
Diamonds
Diamonds and rust
Diamonds
Diamonds and rust
Diamonds
Diamonds and rust
I don't want no more diamonds
Diamonds and rust
