Simon and Garfunkel – Kathy's Song Lyrics 4 years ago
Somehow I'm just hearing this song for the first time today. What a bright spot in what has been a very crazy time in the world. I couldn't help but think of one of my favorite Shakespeare quotes as I read the lyrics:

"I to the world am like a drop of water
That in the ocean seeks another drop,
Who, falling there to find his fellow forth -
Unseen, inquisitive - confounds himself."

I feel like that is such a great comparison to Simon's lines:

"And as I watch the drops of rain
Weave their weary paths and die
I know that I am like the rain"

That last line: "There but for the grace of you go I" brings that all together so well. This is now my very favorite lyric.
