Kathy's Song - Simon and Garfunkel

One of my favorites by Paul Simon, performed by Simon and Garfunkel.

Kathy's Song

I hear the drizzle of the rain
Like a memory it falls
Soft and warm continuing
Tapping on my roof and walls.

And from the shelter of my mind
Through the window of my eyes
I gaze beyond the rain-drenched streets
To England where my heart lies.

My mind's distracted and diffused
My thoughts are many miles away
They lie with you when you're asleep
And kiss you when you start your day.

And a song I was writing is left undone
I don't know why I spend my time
Writing songs I can't believe
With words that tear and strain to rhyme.

And so you see I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.

And as I watch the drops of rain
Weave their weary paths and die
I know that I am like the rain
There but for the grace of you go I.

Great stuff. Suited my mood and the rain.

[Plans4Nobody]

@OverheardProductions Thanks! Guess I'll need to post "Good Day Sunshine" or some such as your spring weeps into summer...

[jacsobrien]

Plans4nobody, No I had not heard this for 25 years and the lines So you see I have come to doubt.....reminded me of someone who I thought may watch this, so it was a message for Dennis........a real longshot.....

[Plans4Nobody]

@jacsobrien Ah, this world is filled with long shots that find their targets - I hope your arrow strikes true!

[jacsobrien]

Remember PImlico? Dennis

[Plans4Nobody]

@jacsobrien Dennis, I really don't, but was this the area where he lived or performed when dating Kathy?

cerebral conjunctivity at its best... Eating away memories at a rapid pace and replacing them with gilded memoirs.... Donke...

[MrPattittos]

Essa musica é muito linda, pois mexe muito com o sentimento passado etc..., sem contar com esse ótimo dedilhado no violão, isso é pra grandes poetas como SIMON & GARFUNKEL

[Merseyrock]

@firesoforion Yes! Rain-time is also a great time to brew tea, to sip while playing a set of "rain mood" tracks - amongst which this one surely fits the bill.
