The Sound Of Silence Lyrics - Concert In Central Park - Simon And Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend 

I've come to talk with you 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 walked alone 

Narrow streets of cobblestone 

'Neath the halo of a streetlamp 

I turned my collar to the cold and damp 

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light 

That split the night 

And touched the sound, of silence 

And in the naked light I saw

The Best Karaoke Songs Ever, Ranked 

LATEST SONG: Post Malone - 'Goodbyes' - Lyrics ft. Young Thug 

NEW SONG: Ed Sheeran - 'BLOW' Lyrics ft. Chris Stapleton & Bruno Mars 

Ten thousand people maybe more 

People talking without speaking 

People hearing without listening 

People writing songs, that voices never shared 

No one dared 

Disturb the sound, of silence 

"Fools," said I, "You do not know 

Silence like a cancer grows" 

Hear my words that I might teach you 

Take my arms that I might reach you" 

But my words, like silent raindrops fell 

And echoed, in the wells, of silence 

And the people bowed and prayed 

Photos 

To the neon god they made 

And the sign flashed out its warning 

In the words that it was forming 

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, 

And tenement halls" 

And whispered in the sounds, of silence"
