Patterns - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)[00:00:00]

The night sets softly[00:00:14]

With the hush of falling leaves [00:00:17]

Casting shivering shadows[00:00:22]

On the houses through the trees [00:00:25]

And the light from a street lamp[00:00:30]

Paints a pattern on my wall [00:00:33]

Like the pieces of a puzzle[00:00:38]

Or a child's uneven scrawl [00:00:41]

Up a narrow flight of stairs[00:00:50]

In a narrow little room [00:00:52]

As I lie upon my bed[00:00:58]

In the early evening gloom [00:01:00]

Impaled on my wall[00:01:06]

My eyes can dimly see[00:01:08]

The pattern of my life[00:01:14]

And the puzzle that is me [00:01:16]

From the moment of my birth[00:01:27]

To the instant of my death [00:01:30]

There are patterns I must follow[00:01:35]

Just as I must breathe each breath [00:01:37]

Like a rat in a maze[00:01:43]

The path before me lies [00:01:45]

And the pattern never alters[00:01:51]

Until the rat dies [00:01:53]

And the pattern still remains[00:02:10]

On the wall where darkness fell [00:02:12]

And it's fitting that it should [00:02:18]

For in darkness I must dwell [00:02:20]

Like the color of my skin [00:02:25]

Or the day that I grow old [00:02:28]

My life is made of patterns[00:02:33]

That can scarcely be controlled[00:02:36]
