Flowers Never Bend With The Rainfall

Flowers Never Bend With The Rainfall - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)

Written by：Paul Simon

Through the corridors of sleep

Past the shadows dark and deep

My mind dances and leaps in confusion

I don't know what is real

I can't touch what I feel

And I hide behind the shield of my illusion

So I'll continue to continue to pretend

That my life will never end

And the flowers never bend

With the rainfall

The mirror on my wall

Casts an image dark and small

But I'm not sure at all it's my reflection

I am blinded by the light

Of God and truth and right

And I wander in the night without direction

So I'll continue to continue to pretend

That my life will never end

And the flowers never bend

With the rainfall

It's no matter if you're born

To play the king or pawn

For the line is thinly drawn 'tween joy and sorrow

And so my fantasy

Becomes reality

And I must be what I must be and face tomorrow

So I'll continue to continue to pretend

That my life will never end

And the flowers never bend

With the rainfall
