lyrics

Verse 1:
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.

Verse 2:
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.

Chorus 1:
Well, we both know what memories can bring,
they bring diamonds and rust.
Yes, we both know what memories can bring,
bring be diamonds and rust.

Bridge:
I see you standing all around,
with snow in your hair.
You're smiling out the window of the 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.

Chorus 2:
Diamonds, diamonds and rust.
Diamonds, diamonds and rust.
I don't want no more diamonds, diamonds and rust.
I don't want no more Diamonds, diamonds and rust.
I don't want no more diamonds, diamonds and rust.
Diamonds, diamonds and ... rust.
