Diamonds And Rust Lyrics

Diamonds And Rust 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



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



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



Now I see you standing with brown leaves all around and
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
