Song information
Artist: Red House Painters Album: Bridge
Lyrics
A winter's day In a deep and dark december I am alone Gazing from my window to the streets below On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock, I am an island
I've built walls A fortress deep and mighty That none may penetrate I have no need of friendship Friendship causes pain It's laughter and loving I disdain
I am a rock, I am an island
Don't talk of love But I've heard the word before It's sleeping in my memory I won't disturb the slumber of the feelings that have died If I never loved I never would have cried
I am a rock, I am an island
I have my books And my poetry to protect me I am shielded in my armour Hiding in my room, safe within my womb I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock, I am an island
And a rock feels no pain, and an island never cries
