I Am A Rock lyrics
Song information
Artist: Simon And Garfunkel Album: Old Friends
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 it's loving I disdain I am a rock I am an island
Don't talk of love Well, I've heard the word before It's sleeping in my memory I won't disturb the slumber of 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 armor 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
