A song dedicated to Ukraine.com forum


Hello darkness, my old friend,
I’ve come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left it’s 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 street lamp,
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
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.

"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
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out it’s 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 whisper’d in the sounds of silence.

for me its a song by "lamb" called Gorecki

If I should die this very moment,I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness,Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you,Loving every breath of you
Still my heart this moment,Or it might burst

Could we stay right here,Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning,Wanna love you 'til the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

All this time I've loved you,And never known your face
All this time I've missed you,And searched this human race
Here is true peace,Here my heart most calm
Safe in your soul,Bathed in your sighs

Wanna stay right here,Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning,Gonna love you 'til the seas runs run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

All I've known,
All I've done,
All I've felt,
Was leading to this
All I've known,
All I've done,
All I've felt,
Was leading to this

Wanna stay right here,Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning,Gonna love you 'til the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for,The one I've waited for

Wanna stay right here,Until the end of time
'Til the earth stops turning,Gonna love you 'til the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

The one I've waited for

and for lyrics anything on paul simons Graceland album is amazing
