Well Ill be damned Here comes your ghost again But thats not unusual Its just that the moon is full And you happened to call And here I sit, hand on the telephone Hearing a voice Id known A couple of light years ago Heading straight for a fall As I remember your eyes Were bluer than robins eggs My poetry was lousy, you said Where are you calling from? A booth in the Midwest Ten years ago I bought you some cuff links You brought me something And we both know what memories can bring They bring diamonds and rust You burst on the scene Already a legend The unwashed phenomenon The original vagabond You strayed into my arms And there you stayed Temporarily lost at sea The Madonna was yours for free Yes the girl on the half-shell Would keep you unharmed Now I see you standing With brown leaves falling around An snow in your hair Now youre 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 youre telling me Youre not nostalgic Then give me another word for it You, who are so good with words And at keeping things vague Cause I need some of that vagueness now Its all come back too clearly I once loved you dearly And if youre offering me diamonds and rust Well, Ive already paid... Songwriters BAEZ Un poco de música celebrando que un día como hoy nació la famosa cantante de música folk estadounidense, Joan Chandos Báez (Staten Island, Nueva York, 9 de enero de 1941), Joan Báez, conocida como La reina de la canción protesta. Caracterizada por una voz potente, aguda, próxima a la de una soprano, y con un vibrato controlado para potenciar la dramatización de las letras de las canciones, es la máxima figura de la canción protesta surgida en los años sesenta, al calor de la Guerra de Vietnam. Su repertorio, no obstante, abarca también lo tradicional, el country y el pop-rock. Ha recibido numerosos premios tanto como cantante como por su labor humanitaria.
