Questions For The Angels - Paul Simon

作词：Paul Simon

作曲：Paul 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

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
