"In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp"
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp"
"And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence"
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence"
"But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence"
And echoed in the wells of silence"
"The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence"
