03:04Last night
03:06I had the strangest dream
03:09I ever dreamed before
03:13I dreamed the world had all agreed
03:18To good and end to war
03:22I dreamed I saw a mighty room
03:27The room was filled with men
03:31And the paper they were signing said
03:36They'd never fight again
03:39And when the papers all were signed
03:45Had a million copies made
03:49They all joined hands and bowed their heads
03:54And grateful prayers were prayed
03:58And the people in the streets below
04:03Were dancing round and round
04:07And guns and swords and uniforms
04:12Were scattered on the ground
04:34Last night
04:35Last night I had the strangest dream
04:38I ever dreamed before
04:42I dreamed the world had all agreed
04:47To put an end to war
05:07Fox rolling in off the East Riverbank
05:11Like a shroud
05:16It covers Bleaker Street
05:20Fills the alleys where men sleep
05:25Hides the shepherd from the sheep
05:38Voices leaking from a sad cafe
05:42Smiling faces
05:47Tried to understand
05:51I saw a shadow
05:54Touch a shadow's hand
05:57On Bleaker Street
06:03The poet reads
06:11His crooked rhyme
06:13Holy, holy
06:18Is his sacrament
06:21Thirty dollars pays your rent
06:26On Bleaker Street
06:29On Bleaker Street
06:34On Bleaker Street
06:34On Bleaker Street
06:40I heard a church bell
06:42Softly chime
06:44In a melody sustaining
06:53It's a long road
06:57It's a long road
06:57To Canaan
06:59On Bleaker Street
07:20It's a long road
07:21To Canaan
07:21Oh, oh, oh, Bleecker Street.
07:56Ooh, a lovely little sparrow, who has traveled far and cries for rest.
08:12Not eyes to the oak tree, I won't share my branches with no sparrow's nest, and my blanket
08:24of leaves won't warm a cold breast.
08:34Who will love a little sparrow, and who will speak a kindly word?
08:48Not eyes to the swan, the entire idea is utterly absurd, I'd be laughed at and scorned if
09:01the other swan's hurt.
09:11And who will take pity in his heart, and who will feed a starving sparrow?
09:28Ooh, not eyes to the golden wheat, I would if I could, but I cannot, I know, I need all
09:40my grain to prosper and grow.
09:47Ooh, a lovely little sparrow, will no one write her eulogy?
10:04I will save the earth, for all I've created returns unto me.
10:13From dust were ye made, and dust ye shall be.

13:31Because a vision softly creeping...
13:36Left its seeds while I was sleeping...
14:09And the vision...
14:10I turned my collar to look cold and damp...
14:14When my eyes were stared by the flash of a neon light...
14:20That split the night...
14:22That split the night...
14:24And touched the sound of silence...
14:30And in the naked light...
14:3310,000 people...
14:5810,000 people...
15:02Of silence...
15:03Of silence...
15:05Of silence...
15:06Of silence...
15:10Like a cancer grows...
15:12And the cancer grows...
15:15Hear my words that I might teach you...
15:19Take my arms that I might reach you...
15:22But my words...
15:26But my words...
15:52In the words that it was forming...
15:56In the words that it was forming...
15:57And the sign said...
15:59The words of the prophets are written...
16:02On the subway walls...
16:04On the subway walls...
16:06Tenement halls...
16:08And whispered...
16:10The sounds...
16:13Of silence...
16:17Of silence...
16:38He...
16:41Was my brother...
16:46Five years older than I...
16:55He was my brother
17:01Twenty-three years old
17:06The day he died
17:16Free

17:43Your burying place
17:56He was singing on his knees
18:02An angry mob trailed along
18:12They shot my brother dead
18:18Because he hated what was wrong
18:32He was my brother
18:38Tears can't bring him back to me
18:47He, he was my brother
18:52And he died so his brothers could be free
18:56He died so his brothers could be free

21:48Hallelujah go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere go tell it on the mountain

24:02The sun is burning in the sky
24:09Strands of clouds go slowly drifting by
24:16In the park the lazy bees
24:20Are joining in the flowers among the trees
24:26And the sun burns in the sky
24:33Now the sun is in the west
24:39Little kids go home to take their rest
24:46And the couples in the park
24:51Are holding hands and waiting for the dark
24:55And the sun is in the west
25:03Now the sun is sinking low
25:09Children play and know it's time to go
25:16High above a spider pierce
25:21A little blossom blooms and then draws near
25:26And the sun is sinking low
25:34Now the sun has come to earth
25:40Shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death
25:46Death comes in a blinding flesh
25:51Of hell is he and he is a smear of ash
25:57And the sun has come to earth
26:04Now the sun has disappeared
26:10All is darkness, anger, pain and fear
26:18Twisted sightless wrecks of men
26:22Go groping on their knees and cry in pain
26:27And the sun has disappeared
26:37And the sun has disappeared
26:46Come and gather round people wherever you roam
26:52And admit that the waters around you have grown
26:56And accept it that soon
26:58You'll be drenched to the bone
27:00If your time to you is worth saving
27:03Then you better start swimming
27:06Or you'll sink like a stone
27:08For the times they are a-changing
27:17Of writers and critics who prophesize with your pen
27:22And keep your eyes wide
27:24The chance won't come again
27:26And don't speak too soon
27:28For the wheels still in spin
27:30And there's no telling who that it's naming
27:33Cause the loser now will be later to win
27:38For the times they are a-changing
27:48Come senators, congressmen, please heed the call
27:52Don't stand in the doorways, don't lock up the hall
27:56For he that gets hurt will be he that has stalled
28:00The battle outside raging
28:04Will soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
28:09For the times they are a-changing
28:18Come mothers and fathers all over the land
28:22And don't criticize what you can't understand
28:26Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
28:30Your old roads are rapidly aging
28:34Please get out of the new one if you can lend your hand
28:39For the times they are a-changing
28:47The line is drawn
28:50The curse it is cast
28:52The slow one now will later be fast
28:56And the present now will later be fast
29:00The order is rapidly fading
29:04The first one now will later be last
29:08For the times they are a-changing
29:13For the times they are a-changing
29:46I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love
29:50I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love
29:51As she lies here beside me
29:54I can hear the soft breathing of the girl that I love
29:55As sleep with the night
29:57And her hair in a fine mist floats on my pillow
30:04Reflecting the glow of the winter moonlight
30:14She is soft, she is warm, but my heart remains heavy
30:19And I watch as her breasts gently rise, gently fall
30:25For I know with the first light of dawn I'll be leaving
30:31And tonight will be all I have left to recall
30:43Oh, what have I done? Why have I done it?
30:49I've committed a crime, broken the law
30:54For twenty-five dollars and pieces of silver
30:59I held up and robbed a hard liquor store
31:11My life seems unreal, my crime an illusion
31:17A scene badly written in which I must play
31:22Yet I know as I gaze at my young love beside me
31:28The morning is just a few hours away
31:39The morning is just a few hours away
31:57Fogs rolling in off the east riverbank
32:01Like a shroud
32:07It covers Beaker Street
32:09Fills the alleys where men sleep
32:15Hides the shepherd from the sheep
32:28Voices leaking from a sad cafe
32:31Voices leaking from a sad cafe
32:31Voices leaking from a sad cafe
32:32Voices leaking from a sad cafe
32:32Swiling faces
32:37Tried to understand
32:40I saw a shadow touch a shadow's hand
32:46On Bleaker Street
32:58The poet reads
33:01His crooked rhyme
33:04Holy, holy is his sacrament
33:11Thirty dollars pays your rent
33:16Thirty dollars pays your rent
33:17On Bleaker Street
33:29Heard church bells
33:31Heard church bells
33:33Softly chime
