BOBBY movie - The Sound Of Silence lyrics

rate me

Song by Simon & Garfunkel<br /><br>

Hello darkness, my old friend,<br>

Ive come to talk with you again,<br>

Because a vision softly creeping,<br>

Left its seeds while I was sleeping,<br>

And the vision that was planted in my brain<br>

Still remains<br>

Within the sound of silence.<br>

<br>

In restless dreams I walked alone<br>

Narrow streets of cobblestone,<br>

neath the halo of a street lamp,<br>

I turned my collar to the cold and damp<br>

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of<br>

A neon light<br>

That split the night<br>

And touched the sound of silence.<br>

<br>

And in the naked light I saw<br>

Ten thousand people, maybe more.<br>

People talking without speaking,<br>

People hearing without listening,<br>

People writing songs that voices never share<br>

And no one deared<br>

Disturb the sound of silence.<br>

<br>

Fools said i,you do not know<br>

Silence like a cancer grows.<br>

Hear my words that I might teach you,<br>

Take my arms that I might reach you.<br>

But my words like silent raindrops fell,<br>

And echoed<br>

In the wells of silence<br>

<br>

And the people bowed and prayed<br>

To the neon God they made.<br>

And the sign flashed out its warning,<br>

In the words that it was forming.<br>

And the signs said, the words of the prophets<br>

Are written on the subway walls<br>

And tenement halls.<br>

And whisperd in the sounds of silence.<br>

<br>
