(Simon / Garfunkel)
A winter's day in a deep and dark December I am alone Gazing from my window to the street below On a freshly fallen , silent shroud of snow I am a rock I am an island Don't talk of love Well, I've heard the word before It's sleeping in my memory Don't disturb the slumber Of feelings that have died If I never loved, I never would have cried chorus I build walls A fortress deep and might That none may penetrate I have no need of friendship Friendship causes pain It's laughter and it's loving I disdain chorus I have my books And my poetry to protect me I am shielded in my armor Hiding in my room, safe within my womb I touch no one and no one touches me chorus And a rock feels no pain And an island never cries chorus x 2 |

Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
"Please share my umbrella" Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows Under my umbrella All that summer, we enjoyed it Wind and rain and shine That umbrella, we employed it By August, she was mine Every morning, I would see her waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shop, and she would show me what she bought All the people stared as if we were both quite insane Someday my name and hers are going to be the same That's the way the whole thing started Silly but it's true Thinkin' of a sweet romance Beginning in a queue Came the sun, the ice was melting No more sheltering now Nice to think that that umbrella Led me to a vow Every morning, I would see her waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shop, and she would show me what she bought All the people stared as if we were both quite insane Someday my name and hers are going to be the same Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say "Please share my umbrella" Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows Under my umbrella All that summer, we enjoyed it Wind and rain and shine That umbrella, we employed it By August, she was mine |

Will you try to justify the meaning
Of the note you sent this evening To my door, you're not deceiving me I'd have thought that you'd have known much better Sending round an unsigned letter Facing me would be much better now Is it just that you can't face the future with me Can't you tell me to my face You just took the coward's way to say goodbye How would you feel here in my place If at last I think I'm glad to rid myself of you I'm sad To think about the time I'll have to go Then I'll turn and walk away so please don't beg for me to stay Cause I know just what I will say to you Is it just that you can't face the future with me Can't you tell me to my face You just took the coward's way to say goodbye How would you feel here in my place Tell me to my face you're leaving now Tell me to my face you're leaving now Though you try to justify the meaning Of the note you sent this evening To my door, you're not deceiving me I'd have thought that you'd have known much better Sending round an unsigned letter Facing me would be much better now Is it just that you can't face the future with me Can't you tell me to my face You just took the coward's way to say goodbye How would you feel here in my place |

I see a clown painting his face once more Before the show has started He paints a smile on his face with his makeup now Although he's broken hearted But the rule of the clown is simple And the show must go on as always People are there to laugh at him And he mustn't let them down He's lost someone dear to him And he's crying now although he doesn't show it He gives the show of his life though he's breaking down Although you'd never know it But there's something different about his smile An unfamiliar frown Yes there's something different about him now He's painted his smile on upside down |

See the girl with cymbals on her fingers
Entering through the door Ruby glistening from her navel Shimmering around the floor Bells on feet go ting-a ling-a-linging Going through my head Sweat is falling just-a like-a tear drops Running from her head Now she's dancing, going through the movements Swaying to and fro Body moving, bringing back a memory Thoughts of long ago Blood is rushing, temperature is rising Sweating from my brow Like a snake, her body fascinates me I can't look away now Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave Now she's moving all around the tables Luring all in sight But I know that she cannot see me Hidden by the light Closer, closer, she is getting nearer Soon she'll be in reach As I enter into a spotlight She stands lost for speech Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave Now I hold her, people are staring Don't know what to think And we struggle knocking over tables Spilling all the drinks Can't they understand that I want her? Happens every week Heavy hand upon my collar Throws me in the street Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Give me time to breathe Stop, stop, stop all the dancing Or I'll have to leave |

And the sea is touching me I feel much happier Than I've ever felt And a long time goes by And I'm floating in the sky And I wish you could be Wish you could be here And if you're free, follow me Throw a pebble in my sea The sun will wrap you up In a pool of gold, and lights in the night reaching neon waves of sight But I wish you could be Wish you could be Wish you could be here The sun, the sand, the sea are waiting On the corner Take a trip out here Hustle, bustle, shove and fuss Will greet you if you stay there I'm without a care Fresh fruit and sea fish Are in abundance here But they don't allow The natives at your door Selling booze Smuggled from another shore And I wish you could be Wish you could be Wish you could be here The sun, the sand, the sea are waiting On the corner Take a trip out here Hustle, bustle, shove and fuss Will greet you if you stay there I'm without a care Fresh fruit and sea fish Are in abundance here But they don't allow The natives at your door Selling booze Smuggled from another shore I wish you could be Wish you could be Wish you could be here Postcard, postcard, postcard. |

Man in a room, can't you see what you did Pick yourself off the floor, it don't suit you, don't be blind One lonely with four walls closing in It's a room without any door You've been on your own since she told you to go I'm telling you why and what for You're a man without a heart Just a lonely man without a heart Man can't you see what you did to yourself Thinking it was so big at the time I could have told you but I wasn't there You shout her the wrong kind of line chorus Pick yourself off the floor It don't suit you to be in that frame of mind Try to be more like a man with respect Get on the right track, don't be blind chorus verse 2 chorus verse 1 |

Isn't it nice to be someone Someone you've dreamed that you are Isn't it such a nice feeling The feeling you've wished upon a star You have slipped down a rainbow Discovered your own pot of gold You are living your wildest dream Use them you'll never grow old Just like Cinderella But your clock will never strike twelve You have something to envy That everyone wants for themselves You have slipped down a rainbow Discovered your own pot of gold Chasing moonbeams and catching the wind and living stories you've been told verse 2 Isn't it nice to be somewhere In places you've dreamed that you've seen Isn't it such a nice feeling being where you've never been verse 1 |

Oh woman get your head out of curlers,
time to get your butt out of bed! Get down your hats and your baggage my child, going back home - getting back to the homestead. I'm-a gonna heat me some water, put a shine upon my shoes. Telephone my mac keep the room above Joe's, 'cause we're coming back, coming back to the homestead. Ev'rything is packed gettin' back to the homestead. This time, this time we'll stay - baby. I know that we could have made it, we had ideas in our heads. And I wish somehow we could have saved it, but we're Gasoline Alley bred. Yet the years havn't really been wasted, and I know it in my head. We did good for the life that we tasted, 'cause we're Gasoline Alley - Gasoline Alley bred! Woman did you really believe it, I did ev'rything a man could do. Breakin' my back just to make us a dime. That don't mean a thing when noone wants to know you. Oh, woman I know how you're feeling, I've seen the hurt upon your face. How many times do you think that I've cried, knowin' ev'ry day your heart was gettin' broken, holdin' back your pride 'till you were nearly chocking; oooh - let's get away - baby. I know that we could have made it, we had ideas in our heads. And I wish somehow we could have saved it but we're Gasoline Alley bred. Yet the years havn't really been wasted and I know it in my head. we did good for the life that we tasted, 'cause we're Gasoline Alley - Gasoline Alley bred! (Gasoline alley...) Gasoline Alley bred!

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI Sitting in a nest of bad men Whiskey bottles piling high Bootlegging boozer on the west side Full of people who are doing wrong Just about to call up the DA man When I heard this woman singing a song A pair of 45's made me open my eyes My temperature started to rise She was a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5'9" beautiful tall With just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Woo! I saw her head up to the table With a tall walking big black cat Well, Charlie said "I hope that you're able, boy 'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at" When suddenly we heard the sirens And everybody started to run I jumped down and across the table When I heard somebody shooting a gun Well, the DA was pumping my left hand And then she was a-holding my right Well, I told her "Don't get scared 'Cause you're gonna be spared" Well I've gotta be forgiven If I wanna spend my living With a long cool woman in a black dress Just a 5'9" beautiful tall Well, with just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Had it all, had it all Had it all, had it all Had it all, had it all |

Standing on a corner Nothing on my mind When walked past a woman She looked my kind I said a hey there woman What you got to do She took one look at me and said baby I'd like to be with you Hold on Wait a minute woman I ain't the kind to phase And I ain't that kind of woman, baby So she says She led me to a dwellin' Just along the street The best part of town baby We gotta be discreet Hold on (Hold on) Break Got to the apartment Number six sixteen My, what a place it was Best I've ever seen She headed to the bedroom Came upon the door Wait a minute, darling While I slip into something cool I was getting excited One thing on mind When she rushed out of the bedroom Said You'd better hide She slowed me my movements He caught me by the door What was left on me, baby Was landing on the floor Hold On |

Next time I meet a girl, I won't ask her her name Or where she's been, or where she came from The last time I found love it only brought me pain The problems almost took me over I was washing up for mother, I was lighting pipes for papa And fetching water And that's got nothing at all, that's got nothing at all To do with love Next time I meet a girl I won't tell her my name Or where I've been Or where I came from I'll take a hold of her And love her just the same No need to mention past acquaintances I just want someone to love me And someone to like the presents That I bought her 'Cause that's got something to do Yes, that's got something to do To do with love Each girl I meet comes up wronger And I can't take it all much longer No, I can't no verse 3 verse 4 verse 5 |

Another day gone and I think of you
Wonder where you're going Wonder what you do without me A telephone call from a friend I know left me feeling bitter left me feeling so unhappy 'Cos if you couldn't wait for 24 hours what good would telegrams and flowers do If it wasn't for the reason that I love you baby I wouldn't have another thing to say to you Might as well stay for a day or two Find another friend and have a drink or two to pass the time Talking over troubles in a whiskey daze a little drop of cognac helps a man to face the lonely times 'Cause it's sad being home and I've given up trying I've got no lyin' that I wanna do chorus Wish I could find a way Make up the words to say You cheated and you lied You took away the little pride I had inside chorus verse 1 verse 2 verse 4 verse 5 |

Big tall man standing in the street
Gun hanging by his side Just one man that he'd like to meet That's when I began to hide I recognized him from the face of his son The hate in his eye didn't lie Oh what I did can't be undone Borrowed time there's none to buy Well I hid round the back of a derelict shack Ain't looking for a mad showdown But he was smart, he'd already checked A week in advance I'd paid down Well the hotel clerk was a fun-loving man The job he had it didn't pay He told all about what happened that night There he is, that's the one's all he'd say Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping on my bad neighbours doors crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly Let me in I gotta hide Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying No one to protect our town Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly he's gonna shoot your sheriff down Big tall man standing in the street now a hand hovering waiting to slide Drew out his gun it wasn't for fun Let me in there's nowhere to hide Well I made my play but it wasn't my day I felt the ripping lead That's when I knew my time was through Rest in peace were the last words he said Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping on my bad neighbours doors crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly Let me in I gotta hide Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying No one to protect our town Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly he's gonna shoot your sheriff down Well all the people were running, jumping, even thumping on my bad neighbours doors crying Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly Let me in I gotta hide Well everybody was crying, sighing Sam McGee's dying No one to protect our town Curly Billy Silly with his colt he calls filly he's gonna shoot your sheriff down |

If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass Can't think of anything I need No cigarettes, no sleep No light, no sound Nothing to eat, no books to read Making love with you Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired What more could I ask? There's nothing left to be desired Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Peace came upon me, and it leaves me weak So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe And to love you All I need is the air that I breathe Yes, to love you All I need is the air that I breathe |

The smoke was slowly rising as the light began to fade
There were fires on the skyline from some distant border raid I was riding out at seventeen to join my first brigade Many years ago And I chanced upon a farmhouse where the woman took me in She gave me food and wine she gave me shelter from the wind She delayed me from my regiment and service of my king Many years ago She said "Soldier before I lose you to the fight Oh my soldier I'll make a man of you tonight" She took me over in the fading fireglow On that wild and misty night she was my woman When I rose next morning I was gone before she stood Tore myself away from there and left without a word The sound of distant infantry was the only sound I heard On that morning And in that day I aged ten years and died a thousand deaths I learned the feel of frozen steel and fear within my breast But the lesson I'll remember till they lay me to my rest Keeps returning chorus And when the dice of war were thrown and victory was won My drunken young compatriots went out to have their fun And there was no single house they didn't burn or overrun on that evening And I rode out to that place again as hard as I could ride But I found her by the cradle on that lonely mountainside In the hands of those brave friends of mine she suffered and she died Many years ago "Soldier before I lose you to the fight" She said "Soldier I'll make a man of you tonight" She took me over in the fading fireglow On that wild and misty night she was my woman |

Time is here The moments right There's nothing left for me to fight Fill me no favours if I'm lonely tonight All alone on my own Gotta be the only way Finally it looks like we've got nothing to say I don't mind You gotta be cruel to be kind And all we do all day is fight You say wrong and I say right Take my love and run Get out before the morning sun I gave you all I had and more in vain You won't do this to me again No, you won't do this to me again I don't mind You gotta be cruel to be kind We're in the life we started Just a little more broken hearted chorus x3 |
