Wish I was "Homeward Bound"...

The Boxer - thanks to an awesome English teacher I love this song since forever. He played songs for us on the guitar - and had us translate the lyrics into German

Listening to "The Concert in Central Park" (guilty pleasure) as I work on some editing.

Listening to Scarborough Fair/Canticle. Such a cool song!

Mrs. Robinson - I'm so glad I finally got to watch, The Graduate.

"When I look back at all the crap I learned in high school . . ." (Or didn't learn . . .)

Listening to the best of record while I paint my bookcase with my sisters. Fantastic night!

You just gotta love Mrs. Robinson!

Listening to Bridge over troubled Water. This track is timeless

"People talking without speaking"

Listening to Sounds of Silence to prepare myself for The Graduate at the Castro later :))

'In restless dreams I walked alone' how awesome is 'the sound of silence'?

Bookend Theme is stuck in my head

The Boxer... I'm not sure why I'm so sad tonight.

America. This makes me think of Cathy.

April Come She Will

April come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain;
May, she will stay,
Resting in my arms again

June, she´ll change her tune,

April Come She Will

April come she will
When streams are ripe and swelled with rain;
May, she will stay,
Resting in my arms again

June, she´ll change her tune,
In restless walks she´ll prowl the night;
[ From: www.elyrics.net/read/s/simon-&-garfunkel-lyrics/april-come-s ]
July, she will fly
And give no warning to her flight.

August, die she must,
The autumn winds blow chilly and cold;
September I´ll remember.
A love once new has now grown old.

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's pies

Kathy,
I said
As we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
Michigan seems like a dream to me nowIt took me four daysTo hitchhike from SaginawI've come to look for America.
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit
Was a spy
I said
Be careful,His bow tie is really a camera.
[ From: www.elyrics.net/read/s/simon-&-garfunkel-lyrics/america-lyri ]
Toss me a cigaretteI think there's one in my raincoat.
We smoked the last oneAn hour ago.
So I looked at the scenery

She read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field
Kathy, I'm lost,
I said
Though I knew she was sleeping
I'm empty and aching andI don't know why.
Counting the cars
On the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come
To look for America

A Heart In New York

New York, to that tall skyline I come, flyin' in from London to your door
New York, lookin' down on Central Park
Where they say you should not wander after dark

A Heart In New York

New York, to that tall skyline I come, flyin' in from London to your door
New York, lookin' down on Central Park
Where they say you should not wander after dark
New York, like a scene from all those movies
But you're real enough to me, but there's a heart
A heart that lives in New York
A heart in New York, a rose on the street
[- From: www.elyrics.net/read/s/simon-&-garfunkel-lyrics/a-heart-in-n -]
I write my song to that city heartbeat
A heart in New York, love in her eye, an open door at a friend for the night
New York, you got money on your mind
And my words won't make a dime's worth a difference, so here's to you New York

A Hazy Shade Of Winter

Time,
Time,
Time, see what's become of me
While I looked around for my possibilities.

I was so hard to please.
Look around,
Leaves are brown,
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

Hear the Salvation Army band.
Down by the riverside's
Bound to be a better ride
Than what you've got planned.

Carry your cup in your hand.
And look around.
Leaves are brown.
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

Hang on to your hopes, my friend.
That's an easy thing to say,
[ From: www.elyrics.net/read/s/simon-&-garfunkel-lyrics/a-hazy-shade ]
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend that you can build them again.
Look around,
The grass is high,
The fields are ripe,
It's the springtime of my life.

Seasons change with the scenery;
Weaving time in a tapestry.
Won't you stop and remember me
At any convenient time?
Funny how my memory skips
Looking over manuscripts
Of unpublished rhyme.

Drinking my vod...

All lies and jest, still, a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest. - Simon and Garfunkel, The Boxer
