Black Diamond Bay
(专辑: Desire - 1976)
Up on the
white veranda She wears a
necktie and a
Panama hat Her passport shows a
face From another time and place She looks nothing like that And all of the
remnants of her recent past Are scattered in the
wild wind She walks across the
marble floor Where a
voice from the
gambling room is calling her to come on in She smiles, walks the
other way As the
last ship sails and the
moon fades away From Black Diamond Bay. As the
morning light breaks open The
Greek comes down and he asks for a
rope And a
pen that will write "Pardon monsieur" the
desk clerk says Carefully removes his fez "Am I
hearing you right?" And as the
yellow fog is lifting The
Greek is quickly heading for the
second floor She passes him on the
spiral staircase Thinking he's the
Soviet Ambassador She starts to speak, but he walks away As the
storm clouds rise and the
palm branches sway On Black Diamond Bay. A
soldier sits beneath the
fan Doing business with a
tiny man Who sells him a
ring Lightning strikes, the
lights blow out The
desk clerk wakes and begins to shout, "Can you see anything?" Then the
Greek appears on the
second floor In his bare feet with a
rope around his neck While a
loser in the
gambling room lights up a
candle Says, "Open up another deck." But the
dealer says, "Attendez-vous, s'il vous plaît." As the
rain beats down and the
cranes fly away From Black Diamond Bay. The
desk clerk heard the
woman laugh As he looked around in the
aftermath And the
soldier got tough He tried to grab the
woman's hand Said, "Here's a
ring it cost a
grand." She said, "That ain't enough." Then she ran upstairs to pack her bags While a
horse-drawn taxi waited at the
curb She passed the
door that the
Greek had locked Where a
handwritten sign read "Do Not Disturb" She knocked upon it anyway As the
sun went down and the
music did play On Black Diamond Bay. "I've got to talk to someone quick!" But the
Greek said, "Go away," and he kicked the
chair to the
floor He hung there from the
chandelier She cried, "Help there's danger near! Please open up a-the door." Then the
volcano erupted And the
lava flowed down from the
mountain high above The
soldier and the
tiny man Were crouched in the
corner thinking of forbidden love But the
desk clerk said, "It happens every day." As the
stars fell down and the
fields burned away On Black Diamond Bay. As the
island slowly sank The
loser finally broke the
bank In the
gambling room The
dealer said, "It's too late now. You can take your money, but I
don't know how You'll spend it in the
tomb." The
tiny man bit the
soldier's ear As the
floor caved in And the
boiler in the
basement blew While she's out on the
balcony where a
stranger tells her, "My darling je vous aime beaucoup." She sheds a
tear and then begins to pray As the
fire burns on and the
smoke drifts away From Black Diamond Bay. I
was sitting home alone one night In LA watching old Cronkite On the
seven o'clock news It seems there was an earthquake that Left nothing but a
Panama hat And a
pair of Greek shoes Didn't seem like much was happening So I
turned it off and went to grab another beer Seems like every time you turn around There's another hard-luck story that you're gonna hear And there's really nothing anyone can say And I
never did plan to go anyway To Black Diamond Bay.
