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
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
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
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
And we both know what memories can bring
They bring diamonds and rust
I bought you some cufflinks
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
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
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 you're smiling out the window
Of that crummy hotel over Washington Square
With brown leaves falling around
An' 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
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
You're 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
It's all come back too clearly
I once loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
Well, I've already paid...
It's all come back too clearly
I once loved you dearly
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
Well, I've already paid...

Η εξαιρετική φωνή της Joan Baez αλλά και το ταλέντο της να γράφει τραγούδια της επέτρεψαν να γράψει ένα ερωτικό αφιέρωμα στον Bob Dylan. Η ίδια ισχυρίστηκε ότι το έγραψε για τον άντρα της, αλλά μάλλον Bob Dylan μυρίζει το κομμάτι, όπως αναφέρουν και πηγές στο διαδίκτυο. Ένα νοσταλγικά καμουφλαρισμένο κιθαριστικό, αέρινο και ερωτικό ξεφύλλισμα πίσω στην νεανική σχέση της με τον Dylan!
Από την μεριά μου δεν έχω ούτε τη φωνή της Baez ,ούτε το συνθετικό της ταλέντο, αλλά και το πιο σημαντικό δεν είχα γκόμενο τον ασαφή, γνήσιο μπαγαπόντη Dylan με τα μπλε του μάτια για να μνημονεύω τα μανικετόκουμπα που του δώρισα εκφράζοντας τη βαθειά μου αγάπη.
Από μια βραδινή βόλτα όχι στην Washington Squαre, αλλά στην πλατεία Συντάγματος με την ευκαιρία μια θεατρικής παράστασης του Τένεσι Ουίλιαμς με τίτλο "Η κραυγή" θα σας γλυκάνω με τις γνωστές τούρτες και πάστες για την σημερινή γιορτή. Από την παράσταση κρατάω τη φράση: ο χειρότερος σου εχθρός είναι ο ίδιος σου ο εαυτός!
Χρόνια Πολλά καψούρες!
ΟΙ ΑΓΡΟΤΕΣ ΕΠΙΤΕΛΟΥΣ ΤΗΝ "ΑΚΟΥΣΑΝ" ΚΑΙ ΗΡΘΑΝ ΠΛΑΤΕΙΑ ΣΥΝΤΑΓΜΑΤΟΣ.
ΠΟΥ ΗΣΑΣΤΑΝ ΒΡΕ ΤΟΣΑ ΧΡΟΝΙΑ;
ΑΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ!
ΚΑΛΛΙΟ ΑΡΓΑ, ΠΑΡΑ ΑΡΓΟΤΕΡΑ!
