I Am A Rock — текст песни (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 penetrate
I have no need of friendship
Friendship causes pain
I`s laughter and it`s loving I disclain
I am a rock I am an island

Don`t talk of love
But I`ve hurt 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
