Simon & Garfunkle I am a Rock Lyrics

A winters day,
In a deep and dark December,
I am alone,
gazing through my window
to the streets below
on a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow

I am a rock,
I am an Island

Ive built walls,
A fortress steep and mighty
that none may penetrate
I have no need for friendship
friendship causes pain
its laughter and its loving I disdain

I am a rock,
I am an Island

don't talk of love
but I'va heard the word before
its 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 armour
hiding in my room
safe within my room
I touch noone and noone touches me

I am a rock,
I am an Island

And a rock feels no pain
And an Island never cries.
