Simon & Garfunkel - Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M. download song

Wednesday, October 30, 2019

ah, yes! my work's done at this hour on the cruise ship and the crew bar was all empty and all mine. i would play this song on the jukebox (digital discs) over and over again while drinking beer that i have brought. so much fond memories!

Art Garfunkel definitely has the best voice, but the two singing together makes the sweetest sound. I truly love hearing their music.

[Verse 1] I can hear the soft breathing
Of the girl that I love
As she lies here beside me
Asleep with the night
And her hair, in a fine mist
Floats on my pillow
Reflecting the glow
Of the winter moonlight
 [Verse 2]
She is soft, she is warm
But my heart remains heavy
And I watch as her breasts
Gently rise, gently fall
For I know with the first light of dawn
I'll be leaving
And tonight will be
All I have left to recall
 [Verse 3]
Oh, what have I done?
Why have I done it?
I've committed a crime
Broken the law
For twenty-five dollars
And pieces of silver
I held up and robbed
A hard liquor store [Verse 4]
My life seems unreal
My crime an illusion
A scene badly written
In which I must play
Yet I know as I gaze
At my young love beside me
The morning is just a few hours away

these two sang beautifully. Too bad they hated each other so much.

"My life seems unreal, My crime an illusion. A scene poorly written, In which I must play." Disregarding the part about crime, this describes how I feel about my life a lot, for both good and bad things.

This song makes me want to cry every time I hear it. It's so simple yet strong and I can feel the pain of the guy having to leave his love for who knows how long. Maybe forever? Beautiful but sad.

one of simon and Garfunkel early songs

I can hear the soft breathing Of the girl that I love, As she lies here beside me Asleep with the night, And her hair, in a fine mist Floats on my pillow, Reflecting the glow Of the winter moonlight. She is soft, she is warm, But my heart remains heavy, And I watch as her breasts Gently rise, gently fall, For I know with the first light of dawn I'll be leaving, And tonight will be All I have left to recall. Oh, what have I done, Why have I done it, I've committed a crime, I've broken the law. For twenty-five dollars And pieces of silver, I held up and robbed A hard liquor store. My life seems unreal, My crime an illusion, A scene badly written In which I must play. Yet I know as I gaze At my young love beside me, The morning is just a few hours away.

It's 3am in the morning and I'm listening to this song

That was a bizarre experience given that this is the first time I've heard this here track, and previously well familiar with "Somewhere They Can't Find Me". These are two songs with essentially identical lyrics but couldn't be more different.

Real music explains life's moments of wonder and simplicity in words and pictures. It speaks from experience and touches on memory and emotion. No one does it better them S&G!

I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love, As she lies here beside me asleep with night, And her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow, Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight. She is soft, she is warm, but my heart remains heavy, And I watch as her breasts gently rise, gently fall, For I know with the first light the dawn I'll be leaving, And tonight will be all I have left to recall. Oh what have I done, why have I done it, I've committed a crime, I've broken the law, For twenty five dollars and pieces of silver, I held up and robbed a hard liquor store. My life seems unreal, my crime an illusion, A scene badly written in which I must play, Yet I know as I gaze at my young love beside me, The morning is just a few hours away.

worth noting that Judas betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. not exactly $25 and a "few pieces of silver" but interesting.

"Oh, what have I done, Why have I done it, I've committed a crime, I've broken the law. For twenty-five dollars And pieces of silver, I held up and robbed A hard liquor store." Some foolish, wrongful action followed by remorse... a theme that frequently comes into my dreams! These lyrics illustrate it so well.

My sister had this album when i was just a kid, loved the way it told a sad story, he had done wrong and now must the consequences. It made a deep impression on me. I still love it, the song that is. thanks for putting it up.
