And we both love singing and listenin' to songs, especially from the 60s for Desi (NSTman, art thou voyearing 'ear?), so here's
ONE DEDICATION TO SOME1 XXpecial!


Joan Baez's

Diamonds and Rust



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 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
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


NOTE: I understand Joan of Both Sides Now fame composed the Song above for her temporal-love Bob Dylan. Are we all like Blowin' In The Wind...?
