Simon And Garfunkel
Bookends
America
Let
us
be
lovers,
well marry our fortunes together
Ive
got
some
real
estate
here
in
my
bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner pies
And walked off to look for America
Kathy, I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
Michigan
seems
like
a
dream
to
me
now
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
I've come to look for America
Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said Be
careful,
his
bowtie
is
really
a
camera
Toss
me
a
cigarette,
I
think
theres one in my raincoat"
"We smoked the last one an hour ago"
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field
"Kathy, Im
lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
Im empty and aching and I dont
know
why
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike
They've all come to look for America
All come to look for America
All come to look for America
