Diamonds And Rust By Joan Baez

多年來，Joan Baez 仍然是我最喜歡的民歌手。尤其這首‘鑽石與銹’。我最近重新下載了這首歌，一聽就不可收拾，可惜本地一直無法找到她的CD，看來唯一辦法就是上網訂購了。曾經試過在香港網站購買年代久遠的CD，飄洋過海來到這裏後，卻遇到辦事態度不認真的本土郵差，連信箱也懶得投，郵包就那麼擱在外面鐵門橫條上，隨便哪個路過的人都可以輕易取走，太不負責任了。

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
