Dangling ConversationSimon & Garfunkel

Два человека в одной комнате, читающие разные книги, говорящие разные слова. Их разговор «свисает», как оборванная нить — близость давно ушла, осталась только вежливость.

Title: THE DANGLING CONVERSATION (Simon & Garfunkle)
  C                 B     D
It's a still life water color
  C             B    D
Of a now late afternoon
         C          B           Am
As the sun shines through the curtain lace
      G                     E  F#
And shadows wash the room
  Em
And we sit and drink our coffee
  F                              E
Cast in our indifference, like shells upon the shore
          D
You can hear the ocean roar
                       C        B     D               G    D      C
In the dangling conversation, and the superficial sighs
                      G   Em  F#
The borders of our lives
  C                 B     D
And you read your Emily Dickenson
  C        B      D
And I my Robert Frost
         C        B          Am
And we note our place with bookmarkers
       G                       E  F#
That measure what we've lost
  Em
Like a poem porely written
         F                     E
We are verses out of rhythm, Couplets out of rhyme
     D
In syncopated time
          C        B     D               G    D      C
And the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
                         G     Em  F#
Are the borders of our lives
  C               B           D
Yes we speak of things that matter
       C          B       D
With words that must be said
     C     B      Am
Can analysis be worthwhile
         G
Is the theatre really dead
  Em
And how the room is softly faded
        F                        E
And I only kiss your shadow, I cannot feel your hand
           D
You're a stranger now unto me
              C        B     D               G    D      C
Lost in the dangling conversation, And the superficial sighs
                        G     Em   F#
In the borders of our lives
