Patterns - Simon & Garfunkel[00:00:00]
Written by:Paul Simon[00:00:00]
The night sets softly[00:00:18]
With the hush of falling leaves[00:00:20]
Casting shivering shadows[00:00:25]
On the houses through the trees[00:00:27]
And the light from a street lamp[00:00:32]
Paints a pattern on my wall[00:00:34]
Like the pieces of a puzzle[00:00:39]
Or a child's uneven scrawl[00:00:41]
Up a narrow flight of stairs[00:00:48]
In a narrow little room[00:00:49]
As I lie upon my bed[00:00:54]
In the early evening gloom[00:00:56]
Impaled on my wall[00:01:02]
My eyes can dimly see[00:01:04]
The pattern of my life[00:01:09]
And the puzzle that is me[00:01:11]
From the moment of my birth[00:01:17]
To the instant of my death[00:01:19]
There are patterns I must follow[00:01:24]
Just as I must breathe each breath[00:01:26]
Like a rat in a maze[00:01:31]
The path before my lies[00:01:33]
And the pattern never alters[00:01:38]
Until the rat dies[00:01:40]
And the pattern still remains[00:02:03]
On the wall where darkness fell[00:02:04]
And it's fitting that it should[00:02:09]
For in darkness I must dwell[00:02:11]
Like the color of my skin[00:02:16]
Or the day that I grow old[00:02:18]
My life is made of patterns[00:02:23]
That can scarcely be controlled[00:02:25]
