Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again
(Because a vision softly creeping, Left its seeds while I was sleeping)
Do an ALLEMANDE LEFT with the CORNER, DOSADO Do an ALLEMANDE LEFT with the CORNER, WEAVE THE RING
And the vision that was planted in my brain (still remains)
SWING, PROMENADE Within the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw, Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening
ALLEMANDE and WEAVE
People writing songs that voices never share, And no one dare
(SWING, PROMENADE) Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, you do not know, Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you. Take my arms that I might reach you, ALLEMANDE and WEAVE
And the sign said...The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls (SWING, PROMENADE)
And whispered in the sound.... TAG .....of Silence.
FIGURE
(HEADS/SIDES) You SQUARE THRU count me FOUR Meet that CORNER, DOSADO SWING THRU and then the BOYS RUN RIGHT
FERRIS WHEEL around that ring tonight CENTER TWO PASS THRU, TOUCH A QUARTER You SCOOT BACK then you're gonna SWING, PROMENADE
And touched the sound of silence
