The Sound Of Silence (Single Version)-Simon And Garfunkel

　　Hello darkness my old friend.

　　I've come 2 talk with U again.

　　Because a vision softly creeping.

　　Left its seeds while I was sleeping.

　　And the vision that was planted in my brain.

　　Still remains.

　　Within the sound of silence

　　In restless dreams I walk alone

　　Narrow streets of cobble stone.

　　'Neath the halo of a street lamp.

　　I turned my collar 2 the cold & damp.

　　When my eyes were stabbled by

　　the flash of a neon light.

　　Split the night.

　　And touched the sound of silence.

　　And in the naked night I saw.

　　Ten thousand people maybe more.

　　People talking without speaking.

　　People hearing without listening

　　People writing songs that voices never share

　　And no one dare.

　　Disturb the sound of silence

　　"Fool" said I ain't do not know.

　　"Silence like a cancer grows.

　　Hear my words that I might teach U.

　　"Take my arms that I might reach U

　　But my words like silent rain-drops fell

　　Echoed in the wells of silence

　　And the people bow & prayed

　　To the neon God they made

　　And the sign flash out its warning

　　In the words that it was forming

　　And the sign said "The words of the prophers

　　Are written on the subway walls & tenement halls

　　And whispered in the sounds of silence
