I’m lost, I said
Though I know she was sleeping.
And empty
And aching
And I don’t know why.

I’m lost, I said
Though I know she was sleeping.
And empty
And aching
And I don’t know why.

Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night.
