  1. The Obvious ChildVer letra 4:38

    [X]

    letra de The Obvious Child

    I'm accustomed to a smooth ride

    Or maybe I'm a dog who's lost its bite

    I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more

    I don't expect to sleep through the night

    Some people say a lie's a lie's a lie

    But I say why

    Why deny the obvious child?

    Why deny the obvious child?



    And in remembering a road sign

    I am remembering a girl when I was young

    And we said These songs are true

    These days are ours

    These tears are free

    And hey

    The cross is in the ballpark

    The cross is in the ballpark



    We had a lot of fun

    We had a lot of money

    We had a little son and we thought we'd call him Sonny

    Sonny gets married and moves away

    Sonny has a baby and bills to pay

    Sonny gets sunnier

    Day by day by day by day



    I've been waking up at sunrise

    I've been following the light across my room

    I watch the night receive the room of my day

    Some people say the sky is just the sky

    But I say

    Why deny the obvious child?

    Why deny the obvious child?



    Sonny sits by his window and thinks to himself

    How it's strange that some rooms are like cages

    Sonny's yearbook from high school

    Is down from the shelf

    And he idly thumbs through the pages

    Some have died

    Some have fled from themselves

    Or struggled from here to get there

    Sonny wanders beyond his interior walls

    Runs his hand through his thinning brown hair



    Well I'm accustomed to a smoother ride

    Maybe I'm a dog that's lost his bite

    I don't expect to be treated like a fool no more

    I don't expect to sleep the night

    Some people say a lie is just a lie

    But I say the cross is in the ballpark

    Why deny the obvious child?

  2. The Boy In The BubbleVer letra 5:59

    [X]

    letra de The Boy In The Bubble

    It was a slow day

    And the sun was beating

    On the soldiers by the side of the road

    There was a bright light

    A shattering of shop windows

    The bomb in the baby carriage

    Was wired to the radio



    These are the days of miracle and wonder

    This is the long distance call

    The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

    The way we look to us all

    The way we look to a distant constellation

    That's dying in a corner of the sky

    These are the days of miracle and wonder

    And don't cry baby, don't cry

    Don't cry



    It was a dry wind

    And it swept across the desert

    And it curled into the circle of birth

    And the dead sand

    Falling on the children

    The mothers and the fathers

    And the automatic earth

    These are the days of miracle and wonder

    This is the long distance call

    The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

    The way we look to us all

    The way we look to a distant constellation

    That's dying in a corner of the sky

    These are the days of miracle and wonder

    And don't cry baby, don't cry

    Don't cry



    It's a turn-around jump shot

    It's everybody jump start

    It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts

    Medicine is magical and magical is art

    The Boy in the Bubble

    And the baby with the baboon heart



    And I believe

    These are the days of lasers in the jungle

    Lasers in the jungle somewhere

    Staccato signals of constant information

    A loose affiliation of millionaires

    And billionaires and baby

    These are the days of miracle and wonder

    This is the long distance call

    The way the camera follows us in slo-mo

    The way we look to us all

    The way we look to a distant constellation

    That's dying in a corner of the sky

    These are the days of miracle and wonder

    And don't cry baby, don't cry

    Don't cry

  3. She Moves OnVer letra 6:25

    [X]

    letra de She Moves On

    I feel good

    It's a fine day

    The way the sun hits off the runway

    A cloud shifts

    The plane lifts

    She moves on



    But feel the bite

    Whenever you believe that

    You'll be lost and love will find you

    When the road bends

    And the song ends

    She moves on



    I know the reason I

    Feel so blessed

    My heart still splashes

    Inside my chest, but she

    She is like a top

    She cannot stop

    She moves on



    A sympathetic stranger

    Lights a candle in the middle of the night

    Her voice cracks

    She jumps back

    But she moves on



    She says "Ooh my storybook lover

    You have underestimated my power

    As you shortly will discover"



    The I fall to my knees

    Shake a rattle at the skies

    I'm afraid that I'll be taken

    Abandoned, forsaken

    In her cold coffee eyes



    She can't sleep now

    The moon is red

    She fights a fever

    She burns in bed

    She needs to talk so

    We take a walk

    Down in the maroon light



    She says "Maybe these emotions are

    As near to love as love will ever be"

    So I agree



    Then the moon breaks

    She takes the corner that's all she takes

    She moves on



    She says "Ooh my storybook lover

    You have underestimated my power

    As you shortly will discover"



    Then I fall to my knees

    I grow weak, I go slack

    As if she captured the breath of my

    voice in a bottle

    And I can't catch it back



    But I feel good

    It's a fine day

    The way the sun hits off the runway

    A cloud shifts

    The plane lifts

    She moves on

  4. KodachromeVer letra 4:13

    [X]

    letra de Kodachrome

    When I think back

    On all the crap I learned in high school

    It's a wonder

    I can think at all

    And though my lack of education

    Hasn't hurt me none

    I can read the writing on the wall



    Kodachrome

    They give us those nice bright colors

    They give us the greens of summers

    Makes you think all the world's

    a sunny day

    I got a Nikon camera

    I love to take a photograph

    So mama don't take my Kodachrome away



    If you took all the girls I knew

    When I was single

    And brought them all together

    for one night

    I know they'd never match

    my sweet imagination

    Everything looks worse

    in black and white

  5. Born At The Right TimeVer letra 5:12

    [X]

    letra de Born At The Right Time

    Down among the reeds and rushes

    A baby boy was found

    His eyes as clear as centuries

    His silky hair was brown



    Never been lonely

    Never been lied to

    Never had to scuffle in fear

    Nothing denied to

    Born at the instant

    The church bells chime

    And the whole world whispering

    Born at the right time



    Me and my buddies we are travelling people

    We like to go down to restaurant row

    Spend those Euro-dollars

    All the way from Washington to Tokyo

    I see them in the airport lounge

    Upon their mother's breast

    They follow me with open eyes

    Their uninvited guest



    Never been lonely

    Never been lied to

    Never had to scuffle in fear

    Nothing denied to

    Born at the instant

    The church bells chime

    And the whole world whispering

    Born at the right time



    Too many people on the bus from the airport

    Too many holes in the crust of the earth

    The planet groans

    Every time it registers another birth



    But down among the reeds and rushes

    A baby girl was found

    Her eyes as clear as centuries

    Her silky hair was brown



    Never been lonely

    Never been lied to

    Never had to scuffle in fear

    Nothing denied to

    Born at the instant

    The church bells chime

    And the whole world whispering

    Born at the right time

  6. Train In The DistanceVer letra 4:45

    [X]

    letra de Train In The Distance

    She was beautiful as Southern skies

    The night he met her

    She was married to someone

    He was doggedly determined that he would get her

    He was old, he was young

    From time to time he'd tip his heart

    But each time she withdrew

    Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

    Everybody thinks it's true

    Well eventually the boy and the girl get married

    Sure enough they have a son

    And though they both were occupied

    With the child she carried

    Disagreements had begun

    And in a while they fell apart

    It wasn't hard to do

    Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

    Everybody thinks it's true

    Two disappointed believers

    Two people playing the game

    Negotiations and love songs

    Are often mistaken for one and the same

    Now the man and the woman

    Remain in contact

    Let us say it's for the child

    With disagreements about the meaning

    Of a marriage contract

    Conversations hard and wild

    But from time to time

    He makes her laugh

    She cooks a meal or two

    Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

    Everybody thinks it's true

    Everybody loves the sound of a train in the distance

    Everybody thinks it's true

    What is the point of this story

    What information pertains

    The thought that life could be better

    Is woven indelibly

    Into our hearts

    And our brains

  7. Me And Julio Down By The School Yard
  8. I Know What I KnowVer letra 4:44

    [X]

    letra de I Know What I Know

    She looked me over

    And I guess she thought

    I was all right

    All right in a sort of a limited way

    For an off-night

    She said don't I know you

    From the cinematographer's party

    I said who am I

    To blow against the wind



    I know what I know

    I'll sing what I said

    We come and we go

    That's a thing that I keep

    In the back of my head



    She said there's something about you

    That really reminds me of money

    She is the kind of a girl

    Who could say things that

    Weren't that funny

    I said what does that mean

    I really remind you of money

    She said who am I

    To blow against the wind



    I know what I know

    I'll sing what I said

    We come and we go

    That's a thing that I keep

    In the back of my head



    She moved so easily

    All I could think of was sunlight

    I said aren't you the women

    Who was recently given a Fulbright

    She said don't I know you

    From the cinematographer's party

    I said who am I

    To blow against the wind



    I know what I know

    I'll sing what I said

    We come and we go

    That's a thing that I keep

    In the back of my head

  9. The Cool, Cool RiverVer letra 5:40

    [X]

    letra de The Cool, Cool River

    Moves like a fist through the traffic

    Anger and no one can heal it

    Shoves a little bump into the momentum

    It's just a little lump

    But you feel it

    In the creases and the shadows

    With a rattling deep emotion

    The cool, cool river

    Sweeps the wild, white ocean



    Yes Boss. The government handshake

    Yes Boss. The crusher of language

    Yes Boss. Mr. Stillwater,

    The face at the edge of the banquet

    The cool, the cool river

    The cool, the cool river



    I believe in the future

    I may live in my car

    My radio tuned to

    The voice of a star

    Song dogs barking at the break of dawn

    Lightning pushes the edge of a thunderstorm

    And these old hopes and fears

    Still at my side



    Anger and no one can heal it

    Slides through the metal detector

    Lives like a mole in a motel

    A slide in a slide projector

    The cool, cool river

    Sweeps the wild, white ocean

    The rage of love turns inward

    To prayers of devotion

    And these prayers are

    The constant road across the wilderness

    These prayers are

    These prayers are the memory of God

    The memory of God



    And I believe in the future

    We shall suffer no more

    Maybe not in my lifetime

    But in yours I feel sure

    Song dogs barking at the break of dawn

    Lightning pushes the edges of a thunderstorm

    And these streets

    Quiet as a sleeping army

    Send their battered dreams to heaven, to heaven

    For the mother's restless son

    Who is a witness to, who is a warrior

    Who denies his urge to break and run



    Who says: Hard times?

    I'm used to them

    The speeding planet burns

    I'm used to that

    My life's so common it disappears

    And sometimes even music

    Cannot substitute for tears

  10. Bridge Over Troubled WaterVer letra 5:16

    [X]

    letra de Bridge Over Troubled Water

    When you're weary, feelin' small

    When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all

    I'm on your side, oh, when times get rough, and friends just can't be found



    Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

    Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down



    When you're down and out, when you're on the street

    When evening falls so hard, I will comfort you

    I'll take your part, oh when darkness comes, and pain is all around



    Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

    Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down



    Sail on silver girl, sail on by

    Your time has come to shine, and all your dreams will run their way

    See how they shine, oh, if you need a friend, I'm sailing right behind



    Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind

    Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind

  11. ProofVer letra 5:39

    [X]

    letra de Proof

    Soon our fortunes will be made, my darling

    And we will leave this loathsome little town

    Silver bells jingling from your black lizard boots, my baby

    Silver foil to trim your wedding gown



    It's true the tools of love wear down

    Time passes

    A mid wanders

    It seems mindless, but it does

    Sometimes I see you face

    As if through reading glasses

    And your smile seems softer than it was



    Proof

    Some people gonna call you up

    Tell you something that you already know

    Proof

    Sane people go crazy on you

    Say ''No man, that was not

    The deal we made

    I got to go, I got to go''

    Faith

    Faith is an island in the setting sun

    But proof, yes

    Proof is the bottom line for everyone



    My face, my race

    Don't matter anymore

    My sex, my cheques

    Accepted at the door



    Proof

    Some people gonna call you up

    Tell you something that you already know

    Proof

    Sane people go crazy on you

    Say ''No man, that was not

    The deal we made

    I got to, I got to go''

    Faith

    Faith is an island in the setting sun

    But proof, yes

    Proof is the bottom line for everyone



    Half moon hiding in the clouds, my darling

    And the sky is flecked with signs of hope

    Raise your weary wings against the rain, my baby

    Wash your tangled curls with gambler's soap



    Proof

    Some people gonna call you up

    Tell you something that you already know

    Sane people go crazy on you

    Say ''No man, that was not

    The deal we made

    I got to, I got to, I got to''

    Faith

    Faith is an island in the setting sun

    But proof, yes

    Proof is the bottom line for everyone

  1. The CoastVer letra 7:04

    [X]

    letra de The Coast

    A family of musicians took shelter for the night

    In the little harbor church of St. Cecilia

    Two guitars, bata, bass drum and tambourine

    Rose of Jericho and Bougainvillea



    This is a lonely life

    Sorrows everywhere you turn

    Afd that's worth something

    When you think about it

    That's worth some money

    That's worth something

    When you think about it

    That is worth some money



    A trip to the market

    A trip into the pearl gray morning sunlight

    That settles over Washington

    A trip to the market

    A trip around the world

    Where the evening meal

    Is negotiable, if there is one.



    This is a lonely-lone, lonely life

    Sorrows everywhere you turn

    And that's worth something

    When you think about it

    That's worth some money

    That's worth something

    When you think about it

    That is worth some money



    To prove that I love you

    Because I believe in you

    Summer skies, stars are falling

    All along the injured coast

    If I have money

    If I have children

    Summer skies, stars are falling

    All along the injured coast

    Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo-wop a Doo-wah

    Summer skies and stars are falling

    All along the injured coast

    Oo-wah Oo-wah Doo-wop a Doo-wah

    Summer skies and the stars are falling

    All along the injured coast



    We are standing in the sunlight

    The early morning sunlight

    In the harbor church of St. Cecilia

    To praise a soul's returning to the earth

    To the rose of Jericho and the Bougainvillea



    To prove that I love you

    Because I believe in you

    Summer skies, stars are falling

    All along the injured coast

    If I have money

    If I have children

    Summer skies, stars are falling

    All along the injured coast



    If I have weaknesses

    Don't let them blind me now

    Summer skies, stars are falling

    All along the injured coast

    Oo-wah Oo-wah

    Doo Wop a Doo Wah

    Summer skies, stars are falling

    Leaving the shadow of the valley behind me now

    All along the injured coast

    Ooh-wah Oow-wah

    Doo Wop a Doo Wah

    Summer skies and stars are falling

    All along the injured coast

    Ooh-wah Ooh-wah

    Doo Wop a Doo Wah

  2. GracelandVer letra 5:30

    [X]

    letra de Graceland

    The Mississippi Delta was shining

    Like a National guitar

    I am following the river

    Down the highway

    Through the cradle of the civil war



    I'm going to Graceland

    Graceland

    In Memphis Tennessee

    I'm going to Graceland

    Poorboys and Pilgrims with families

    And we are going to Graceland

    My traveling companion is nine years old

    He is the child of my first marriage

    But I've reason to believe

    We both will be received

    In Graceland



    She comes back to tell me she's gone

    As if I didn't know that

    As if I didn't know my own bed

    As if I'd never noticed

    The way she brushed her hair from her forehead

    And she said losing love

    Is like a window in your heart

    Everybody sees you're blown apart

    Everybody sees the wind blow



    I'm going to Graceland

    Memphis Tennessee

    I'm going to Graceland

    Poorboys and Pilgrims with families

    And we are going to Graceland



    And my traveling companions

    Are ghosts and empty sockets

    I'm looking at ghosts and empties

    But I've reason to believe

    We all will be received

    In Graceland



    There is a girl in New York City

    Who calls herself the human trampoline

    And sometimes when I'm falling, flying

    Or tumbling in turmoil I say

    Oh, so this is what she means

    She means we're bouncing into Graceland

    And I see losing love

    Is like a window in your heart

    Everybody sees you're blown apart

    Everybody feels the wind blow



    In Graceland, in Graceland

    I'm going to Graceland

    For reasons I cannot explain

    There's some part of me wants to see

    Graceland

    And I may be obliged to defend

    Every love, every ending

    Or maybe there's no obligations now

    Maybe I've a reason to believe

    We all will be received

    In Graceland

  3. You Can Call Me AlVer letra 5:10

    [X]

    letra de You Can Call Me Al

    A man walks down the street

    He says, "Why am I soft in the middle now?

    Why am I soft in the middle?

    The rest of my life is so hard

    I need a photo opportunity

    I want a shot at redemption

    Don't want to end up a cartoon

    In a cartoon graveyard"

    Bonedigger, bonedigger

    Dogs in the moonlight

    Far away my well-lit door

    Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly

    Get these mutts away from me

    You know I don't find this stuff

    Amusing anymore



    If you'll be my bodyguard

    I can be your long-lost pal

    I can call you Betty

    And Betty, when you call me

    You can call me Al



    A man walks down the street

    He says, "Why am I short of attention?

    Got a short little span of attention

    And, woe my nights are so long

    Where's my wife and family?

    What if I die here?

    Who'll be my role model

    Now that my role model is

    Gone gone?"

    He ducked back down the alley

    With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl

    All along along

    There were incidents and accidents

    There were hints and allegations



    If you'll be my bodyguard

    I can be your long-lost pal

    I can call you Betty

    And Betty, when you call me

    You can call me Al

    Call me Al



    A man walks down the street

    It's a street in a strange world

    Maybe it's the third world

    Maybe it's his first time around

    He doesn't speak the language

    He holds no currency

    He is a foreign man

    He is surrounded by the sound, the sound

    Cattle in the marketplace

    Scatter-lings and orphanages



    He looks around, around

    He sees angels in the architecture

    Spinning in infinity

    He says, "Amen!" and "Hallelujah!"



    If you'll be my bodyguard

    I can be your long-lost pal

    I can call you Betty

    And Betty, when you call me

    You can call me Al

    Call me



    Na na na na …



    If you'll be my bodyguard

    I can call you Betty



    If you'll be my bodyguard

    I can call you Betty



    If you'll be my bodyguard ...

    letra de Still Crazy After All These Years

    I met my old lover

    On the street last night

    She seemed so glad to see me

    I just smiled

    And we talked about some old times

    And we drank ourselves some beers

    Still crazy after all these years

    Still crazy after all these years



    I'm not the kind of man

    Who tends to socialize

    I seem to lean on

    Old familiar ways

    And I ain't no fool for love songs

    That whisper in my ears

    Still crazy after all these years

    Still crazy after all these years



    Four in the morning

    Crapped out

    Yawning

    Longing my life away

    I'll never worry

    Why should I?

    It's all gonna fade



    Now I sit by my window

    And I watch the cars

    I fear I'll do some damage

    One fine day

    But I would not be convicted

    By a jury of my peers

    Still crazy after all these years

    Still crazy

    Still crazy

    Still crazy after all these years

    letra de Loves Me Like A Rock

    When I was a little boy

    And the Devil would call my name

    I'd say "now who do ...

    Who do you think you're fooling?"

    I'm a consecrated boy

    Singer in a Sunday choir

    My mama loves, she loves me

    She gets down on her knees and hugs me

    She loves me like a rock

    She rocks me like the rock of ages

    And she loves me



    When I was grown to be a man

    And the Devil would call my name

    I'd say "now who do . ..

    Who do you think you're fooling?"

    I'm a consummated man

    I can snatch a little purity

    My mama loves me, she loves me

    She gets down on her knees and hugs me

    She loves me like a rock

    She rocks me like the rock of ages

    And she loves me



    If I was President

    And the Congress call my name

    I'd say "who do ...

    Who do you think you're fooling?"

    I've got the Presidential Seal

    I'm up on the Presidential Podium

    My mama loves me

    She loves me

    She gets down on her knees and hugs me

    And she loves me like a rock

    She rocks me like the rock of ages

    And she loves me

    She loves me, loves me, loves me, loves me

    letra de Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes

    (a-wa) O kodwa u zo-nge li-sa namhlange

    (a-wa a-wa) Si-bona kwenze ka kanjani

    (a-wa a-wa) Amanto mbazane ayeza



    She's a rich girl

    She don't try to hide it

    Diamonds on the soles of her shoes



    He's a poor boy

    Empty as a pocket

    Empty as a pocket with nothing to lose

    Sing Ta na na

    Ta na na na

    She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

    She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

    Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

    Diamonds on the soles of her shoes



    People say she's crazy

    She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes

    Well that's one way to lose these

    Walking blues

    Diamonds on the soles of her shoes



    She was physically forgotten

    Then she slipped into my pocket

    With my car keys

    She said you've taken me for granted

    Because I please you

    Wearing these diamonds



    And I could say Oo oo oo

    As if everybody knows

    What I'm talking about

    As if everybody would know

    Exactly what I was talking about

    Talking about diamonds on the soles of her shoes



    She makes the sign of a teaspoon

    He makes the sign of a wave

    The poor boy changes clothes

    And puts on after-shave

    To compensate for his ordinary shoes



    And she said honey take me dancing

    But they ended up by sleeping

    In a doorway

    By the bodegas and the lights on

    Upper Broadway

    Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes



    And I could say Oo oo oo

    As if everybody here would know

    What I was talking about

    I mean everybody here would know exactly

    What I was talking about

    Talking about diamonds



    People say I'm crazy

    I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes

    Well that's one way to lose

    These walking blues

    Diamonds on the soles of your shoes

    letra de Hearts And Bones

    One and one-half wandering Jews

    Free to wander wherever they choose

    Are travelling together

    In the Sangre de Cristo

    The Blood of Christ Mountains

    Of New Mexico

    On the last leg of the journey

    They started a long time ago

    The arc of a love affair

    Rainbows in the high desert air

    Mountain passes slipping into stones

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    Thinking back to the season before

    Looking back through the cracks in the door

    Two people were married

    The act was outrageous

    The bride was contagious

    She burned like a bride

    These events may have had some effect

    On the man with the girl by his side

    The arc of a love affair

    His hands rolling down her hair

    Love like lightning shaking till it moans

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    And whoa whoa whoa

    She said why?

    Why don't we drive through the night

    And we'll wake up down in Mexico

    Oh I

    I don't know nothin' about nothin'

    About Mexico

    And tell me why

    Why won't you love me

    For who I am

    Where I am

    He said:

    'Cause that's not the way the world is baby

    This is how I love you, baby

    This is how I love you, baby

    One and one-half wandering Jews

    Returned to their natural coasts

    To resume old acquaintances

    Step out occasionally

    And speculate who had been damaged the most

    Easy time will determine if these consolations

    Will be their reward

    The arc of a love affair

    Waiting to be restored

    You take two bodies and you twirl them into one

    Their hearts and their bones

    And they won't come undone

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    Hearts and bones

    letra de Late In The Evening

    The first thing I remember

    I was lying in my bed

    Couldn't have been no more than one or two

    And I remember there's a radio

    Comin' from the room next door

    And my mother laughed the way some ladies do

    When it's late in the evening

    All the music seeping through



    The next thing I remember

    I am walking down the street

    I'm feeling all right

    I'm with my boys, I'm with my troops, yeah

    And down along the avenue

    Some guys were shootin' pool

    And I heard the sound of a cappella groups, yeah

    Singing late in the evening

    And all the girls out on the stoops, yeah



    Then I learned to play some lead guitar

    I was underage in this funky bar

    And I stepped outside to smoke myself a "J"

    And when I came back to the room

    Everybody just seemed to move

    And I turned my amp up loud and I began to play

    And it was late in the evening

    And I blew that room away



    The first thing I remember

    When you came into my life

    I said I'm gonna get that girl no matter what I do

    Well I guess I'd been in love before

    And once or twice I been on the floor

    But I never loved no one the way that I loved you

    And it was late in the evening

    And all the music seeping through

    letra de America

    Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together

    I've got some real estate here in my bag

    So we bought a pack of cigarettes, and Mrs. Wagner pies

    And we walked off to look for America



    Cathy, I said, as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburg

    Michigan seems like a dream to me now

    It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw

    And I've come to look for America



    Laughin' on the bus, playing games with the faces

    She said the man in the gaberdine suit was a spy

    I said be careful, his bowtie is really a camera



    Toss me a cigarette, I think there's one in my raincoat

    We smoked the last one an hour ago

    So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine

    And the moon rose over an open field



    Cathy, I'm lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping

    I'm empty and I'm aching and I don't know why

    Countin' the cars on the New Jersey turnpike

    They've all come to look for America, all come to look for America



    [Instrumental break]



    Countin' the cars on the New Jersey turnpike

    They've all come to look for America, all come to look for America

    All come to look for America

  10. The BoxerVer letra 4:18

    [X]

    letra de The Boxer

    I am just a poor boy

    Though my story's seldom told

    I have squandered my resistance

    For a pocketful of mumbles

    Such are promises

    All lies and jest

    Still, a man hears what he wants to hear

    And disregards the rest



    When I left my home

    And my family

    I was no more than a boy

    In the company of strangers

    In the quiet of the railway station

    Running scared

    Laying low

    Seeking out the poorer quarters

    Where the ragged people go

    Looking for the places

    Only they would know



    Lie-la-lie...



    Asking only workman's wages

    I come looking for a job

    But I get no offers

    Just a come-on from the whores

    On Seventh Avenue

    I do declare

    There were times when I was so lonesome

    I took some comfort there



    Lie-la-lie...



    Now the years are rolling by me

    They are rockin' evenly

    I am older than I once was

    And younger than I'll be

    But that's not unusual

    No it isn't strange

    After changes upon changes

    We are more or less the same

    After changes

    We are more or less the same



    Lie-la-lie...



    Then I'm laying out my winter clothes

    And wishing I was gone

    Going home

    Where the New York City winters

    Aren't bleeding me

    Leading me

    Going home



    In the clearing stands a boxer

    And a fighter by his trade

    And he carries the reminders

    Of ev'ry glove that laid him down

    Or cut him till he cried out

    In his anger and his shame

    "I am leaving, I am leaving"

    But the fighter still remains



    Lie-la-lie...

  12. The Sound Of SilenceVer letra 5:44

    [X]

    letra de The Sound Of Silence

    Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again

    Because a vision softly creeping, left its 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 streetlamp, I turned my collar to the cold and damp

    When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light, 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 shared, and no one dared

    To stir the sound of silence



    Fool, said I, you do not know, silence, like a cancer, grows

    Hear my words and I might teach you, take my arms then 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'd made

    And the sign flashed its 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 whispered in the sounds of silence
