I am a rock

[ti:I am a rock] [ar:Paul Simon] [al:] [offset:500] 00:04.47]《I Am a Rock》-- (P. Simon' 1965)Simon and Garfunkel 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 prate. 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' But I've heard the words 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. By eric 2002
