I Am A Rock

Track A6
 
[Verse 1] 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 [Refrain] I am a rock I am an island [Verse 2] I’ve built walls A fortress, steep and mighty That none may penetrate I have no need of friendship Friendship causes pain It’s laughter and it’s loving I disdain [Refrain] I am a rock I am an island [Verse 3] 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 [Refrain] I am a rock I am an island [Verse 4] 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 [Refrain] I am a rock I am an island [Outro] And a rock feels no pain And an island never cries
