Questions for the Angels-Paul Simon

作曲 : Simon 作词 : Simon A pilgrim on a pilgrimage Walked across the Brooklyn Bridge His sneakers torn in the hour When the homeless move their cardboard blankets And the new day is born Folded in his backpack pocket The questions that he copied from his heart Who am I in this lonely world? Where will I make my bed tonight? When twilight turns to dark Questions for the angels Who believes in angels? Fools doFools and pilgrims all over the world If you shop for love in a bargain store And you don't get what you are bargain for Can you get your money back? If an empty train in a railway station Calls you to its destination Can you choose another track? Will I wake up from these violent dreams? With my hair as white as the morning moon? Questions for the angels Who believes in angels? I doFools and pilgrims all over the world Downtown Brooklyn The pilgrim is passing a bill-board And catches his eyes, it's Jay-ZHe's got a kid on each knee He is wearing clothes that he wants us to try If every human on the planet And all the buildings in it should disappear Would a zebra grazing in the African Savanna Care enough to share one zebra tear?
