Paul Simon - The Breakup lyrics

[Paul Simon - The Breakup lyrics]

Art Garfunkel: This is Art Garfunkel
Formerly of Simon and Garfunkel i'm here in
The studio to talk about something
That's very important to me you know
A lot of people feel that when an
Important recording group, such as

Paul Simon: Art?

Garfunkel: yeah

Simon: Let me interrupt you a minute
It's not quite serious sounding
Enough try to make it a little bit more, uhh
Grave

Garfunkel: Okay this is Arthur Garfunkel
Once of Simon and Garfunkel one of the
Things that's disturbed me through the
Years has been people's reaction to The
Breakup of Simon and Garfunkel

Simon: Artie? Try and play a little
Bit more on…emphasize the word "disturbed"
Garfunkel: One of the things that has
Disturbed me through the years
Has been people's reaction to The
Breakup of Simon and Garfunkel
You know, a lot of people have taken it as a
Comic event and have not realized
That only with deep
Real feelings of separate
Commitment can such

Simon: I like that i like that
Part about the "separate commitment"

Garfunkel: …can such a breakup actually
Take place only by two, separate individuals
Pursuing their own individual paths and
Following, what to they is
The God of their own choice can two people
Who were once so close end up

Simon: Art? Art
Try and work it in that I'll be
Doing a major college tour this fall

Garfunkel: …who were once so close
Follow two
Paths which are so divergent, whereby, I
For example, record material that I feel
Expresses my soul, and you, Paul
Who are doing a major college tour
(laughs) this fall… (laughs and
Exit's studio laughing)
