| [00:48.052] |
Up on the white veranda |
| [00:50.529] |
She wears a necktie and a Panama hat. |
| [00:58.494] |
Her passport shows a face |
| [01:00.303] |
From another time and place |
| [01:02.334] |
She looks nothin' like that. |
| [01:06.804] |
And all the remnants of her recent past |
| [01:12.208] |
Are scattered in the wild wind. |
| [01:15.213] |
She walks across the marble floor |
| [01:17.470] |
Where a voice from the gambling room is callin' her to come on in. |
| [01:22.427] |
She smiles, walks the other way |
| [01:26.510] |
As the last ship sails and the moon fades away |
| [01:31.386] |
From Black Diamond Bay. |
| [01:37.583] |
As the mornin' light breaks open, the Greek comes down |
| [01:41.219] |
And he asks for a rope and a pen that will write. |
| [01:46.238] |
"Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,“ |
| [01:49.610] |
Carefully removes his fez, |
| [01:51.825] |
"Am I hearin' you right?"“ |
| [01:57.127] |
And as the yellow fog is liftin |
| [02:00.073] |
The Greek is quickly headin' for the second floor. |
| [02:04.950] |
She passes him on the spiral staircase |
| [02:07.693] |
Thinkin' he's the Soviet Ambassador, |
| [02:12.304] |
She starts to speak, but he walks away |
| [02:17.039] |
As the storm clouds rise and the palm branches sway |
| [02:22.078] |
On Black Diamond Bay. |
| [02:27.726] |
A soldier sits beneath the fan |
| [02:30.407] |
Doin' business with a tiny man who sells him a ring. |
| [02:37.843] |
Lightning strikes, the lights blow out. |
| [02:40.017] |
The desk clerk wakes and begins to shout, |
| [02:42.293] |
"Can you see anything?"“ |
| [02:47.107] |
Then the Greek appears on the second floor |
| [02:49.464] |
In his bare feet with a rope around his neck, |
| [02:55.173] |
While a loser in the gambling room lights up a candle, |
| [02:59.643] |
|
| [03:02.162] |
But the dealer says, "Attendez-vous, s'il vous plait,' |
| [03:06.835] |
As the rain beats down and the cranes fly away |
| [03:11.508] |
From Black Diamond Bay. |
| [03:17.359] |
The desk clerk heard the woman laugh |
| [03:19.838] |
As he looked around the aftermath and the soldier got tough. |
| [03:26.746] |
He tried to grab the woman's hand, |
| [03:29.285] |
Said, "Here's a ring, it cost a grand."“ |
| [03:31.907] |
She said, "That ain't enough." |
| [03:36.641] |
Then she ran upstairs to pack her bags |
| [03:39.220] |
While a horse-drawn taxi waited at the curb. |
| [03:44.015] |
She passed the door that the Greek had locked, |
| [03:46.656] |
Where a handwritten sign read, "Do Not Disturb." |
| [03:51.207] |
She knocked upon it anyway |
| [03:55.962] |
As the sun went down and the music did play |
| [04:01.081] |
On Black Diamond Bay. |
| [04:06.648] |
"I've got to talk to someone quick!"“ |
| [04:08.211] |
But the Greek said, "Go away," and he kicked the chair to the floor. |
| [04:16.238] |
He hung there from the chandelier. |
| [04:18.595] |
She cried, "Help, there's danger near |
| [04:21.014] |
Please open up the door!" |
| [04:25.829] |
Then the volcano erupted |
| [04:28.246] |
And the lava flowed down from the mountain high above. |
| [04:33.367] |
The soldier and the tiny man were crouched in the corner |
| [04:38.323] |
Thinking of forbidden love. |
| [04:41.228] |
But the desk clerk said, "It happens every day," |
| [04:45.455] |
As the stars fell down and the fields burned away |
| [04:50.494] |
On Black Diamond Bay. |
| [04:55.836] |
As the island slowly sank |
| [04:58.458] |
The loser finally broke the bank in the gambling room. |
| [05:04.553] |
The dealer said, "It's too late now. |
| [05:08.514] |
You can take your money, but I don't know how |
| [05:10.668] |
You'll spend it in the tomb." |
| [05:15.077] |
The tiny man bit the soldier's ear |
| [05:18.022] |
As the floor caved in and the boiler in the basement blew, |
| [05:22.920] |
While she's out on the balcony, where a stranger tells her, |
| [05:27.673] |
"My darling, je vous aime beaucoup."“ |
| [05:30.234] |
She sheds a tear and then begins to pray |
| [05:34.906] |
As the fire burns on and the smoke drifts away |
| [05:39.620] |
From Black Diamond Bay. |
| [05:45.268] |
I was sittin' home alone one night in L.A., |
| [05:48.641] |
Watchin' old Cronkite on the seven o'clock news. |
| [05:54.796] |
It seems there was an earthquake that |
| [05:57.458] |
Left nothin' but a Panama hat |
| [05:59.388] |
And a pair of old Greek shoes. |
| [06:04.833] |
Didn't seem like much was happenin', |
| [06:07.210] |
So I turned it off and went to grab another beer. |
| [06:11.984] |
Seems like every time you turn around |
| [06:14.605] |
There's another hard-luck story that you're gonna hear |
| [06:19.380] |
And there's really nothin' anyone can say |
| [06:24.359] |
And I never did plan to go anyway |
| [06:29.214] |
To Black Diamond Bay. |
