il volo THE

[00:00.61] THE SOUND OF SILENCE

[00:03.26] ( Paul Simon )

[00:04.85] Hello darkness, my old friend

[00:11.22] I've come to talk with you again

[00:16.54] Because a vision softly creeping

[00:22.39] Left its seeds while I was sleeping

[00:28.23] And the vision that was planted in my brain,

[00:35.94] Still remains

[00:39.92] Within the sound of silence

[00:46.84] In restless dreams, I walked alone

[00:52.42] Narrow streets of cobblestone

[00:57.72] 'Neath the halo of a street lamp

[01:03.04] I turned my collar to the cold and damp

[01:08.88] When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light

[01:18.44] That split the night

[01:20.83] And touched the sound of silence

[01:27.74] MUSICA

[01:38.64] People talking without speaking

[01:43.93] People hearing without listening

[01:48.46] People writing songs that voices never shared

[01:57.49] And no one dared

[02:01.74] Disturb the sound of silence

[02:08.90] And the people bowed and prayed

[02:13.44] To the neon god they made

[02:20.07] And the sign flashed out its warning

[02:24.84] In the words that it was forming

[02:30.96] Then the sign said,

[02:32.82] "The words on the prophets are written on the subway walls

[02:39.99] In tenement halls"

[02:43.43] And whispered, in the sound….. of silence

[02:59.39] …………………………………….
