Art Garfunkel - Everything Waits To Be Noticed Lyrics

Is it just me or does the guitar sound like Bleaker Street?

I saw Simon and Garfunkel perform this song LIVE for the first time on the Wayne Brady show in Fall 2002 at CBS Fairfax--I actually unexpectedly ran into my high school crush there as I was the last to leave the studio... he called my name out of the blue from the bottom of the bleacher stairs. 15 years later, we have two children!

Everything waits to be noticed
A tree falls with no one there
The full potential of a love affair
Everything waits to be noticed

Twenty-eight geese in sudden flight
The last star on the edge of the night
A single button come undone
The middle child, the prodigal son
Everything waits to be noticed
A trickle underneath a dam
The missing line from the telegram
Everything waits to be noticed

The whispering pains that say you're living
The slow burn of not forgiving
The quiet room, the unlikely pair
The full potential of a love affair

Everything waits to be noticed

Longing for braver days
Cautiously turning a phrase
Going unnoticed

But everything waits to be noticed
The changing light in the upper air
The full potential of a love affair
Everything waits to be noticed

I come back to this album and it is still great.
