LYRICS
作词 : Paul Simon
[00:04.0]Hello darkness my old friend.
[00:08.0]I've come to talk with you again.
[00:13.0]Because a vision softly creeping
[00:18.0]Left its seeds while I was sleeping.
[00:22.0]And the vision that was planted in my brain
[00:29.0]Still remains within the sound of silence
[00:38.0]In restless dreams I walked alone
[00:43.0]Narrow streets of cobble stone
[00:47.0]Beneath the halo of a street lamp,
[00:52.0]I turned my collar to the cold and damp
[00:56.0]When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
[01:03.0]That split the night
[01:06.0]And touched the sound of silence
[01:12.0]And in the naked night I saw ten thousand people may be more
[01:21.0]People talking without speaking people hearing without listening
[01:30.0]People writing songs that voices never share
[01:38.0]And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
[01:47.0]"Fool" said I "you do not know
[01:51.0]Silence like a cancer grows
[01:56.0]Hear my words that I might teach you
[02:00.0]Take my arms that I might reach you
[02:05.0]But my words like silent rain-drops fell
[02:14.0]And echo-ed in the wells of silence
[02:21.0]And the people bow and prayed
[02:26.0]to the neon God they made
[02:30.0]And the sign flash out its warning
[02:34.0]In the words that it was forming
[02:39.0]And the sign said "The words of the prophers are
[02:43.0]written the subway walls and tenement halls"
[02:49.0]And whispered in the sounds of silence
