ANY SONG - Joseph May Contest

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
