The Sounds of Silence-www.neilelliottdorval.com - Paul Simon - Solo Piano - music - new video - YouTube Lyrics Neil Elliott Dorval, Hello darkness, my old friend, I came to talk to you again because a vision softly creeping seeds left while I was sleeping and the vision that was planted in my brain still remains in the sound of silence. In restless dreams I walked alone narrow streets of cobblestone Neath the halo of a street lamp, I turned my neck against the cold and dampIf my eyes the flash of a neon light that split the night and stabbed to death 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 never share and no one dared disturb the sound of voices silent. Fools said I do not know Silence like a cancer grows. Hear my words that I teach you Take my arms that I might reach you. But my words like silent raindropsfell, and echoed in the silence And the people bowed and prayed to God have neon. And the characters have thrown the alarm, saying that they did. And the sign said, the words of the prophets are written on subway walls of houses. And whispered in the sounds of silence.
