Well "Hello darkness, my old friend," Time for the sea and sky to blend. Daytime work will come to an end, And now homeward bound I will wend. At night with tired workers, I blend. Well "Hello darkness, my old friend." "Through narrow streets of cobblestone." In a crowd and feeling alone. "Are written on the subway walls", Phone numbers that no-one recalls. Well "Hello darkness, my old friend". Stay with me til home I ascend. With night I draw an alliance. "Whispered in the sounds of silence." We’ll be together til night’s end. Well "Hello darkness, my old friend."
Words from "The Sounds of Silence" By Paul Simon

Nice to see a song writer . The song is beautiful and blends with original classic song.
