Great White Diamonds And Rust
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
And here I sit Hand on the telephone Hearing the voice I'd known A couple of light years ago Headed straight for a fall
Oh, 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 around with snow in your hair Now we're smiling out the window of the 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 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, Yes, I love you dearly And if you're offering me diamonds and rust, I've already paid
But 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
