Well I’ll be damned
Here comes your ghost again
But that’s not unusual, it’s just that the moon is full
And you happened to call

And here I sit
Hand on the telephone
Hearing a voice I’d known a couple of light years ago
Heading straight for a fall

As I remember your eyes
Were bluer than robin’s eggs
My poetry was lousy you said
Where are you calling from?
A booth in the Midwest

Ten years ago
I bought you some cufflinks, you brought me something
We both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust

Well you burst on the scene
Already a legend
The unwashed phenomenon, the original vagabond
You strayed into my arm

And there you stayed
Temporarily lost at sea
The Madonna was yours for free
Yes the girl on the halfshell would keep you unharmed

Now I see you standing with brown leaves falling around and snow in your hair
Now you’re smiling out the window of that crummy hotel over Washington Square
Our breath comes out white clouds
Mingles and hangs in the air
Speaking strictly for me
We both could have died then and there
Now you’re telling me you’re not nostalgic
Then give me another word for it, you who are so good with words
And at keeping things vague

Because I need some of that vagueness now
It’s all come back too clearly
Yes I loved you dearly
And if you’re offering me diamonds and rust I’ve already paid
