I Am A Rock (我是块岩石) - Red House Painters

Written by：Paul Simon

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 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 loving I disdain

I am a rock I am an island

I am a rock I am an island

Don't talk of love

But I've heard the word before

It's sleeping in my memory

I won't disturb the slumber of the feelings that have died

If I never loved I never would have cried

I am a rock I am an island

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 womb

I touch no one and no one touches me

I am a rock I am an island

I am a rock I am an island

I am a rock I am an island

I am a rock I am an island

And a rock feels no pain and an island never cries

And a rock feels no pain and an island never cries

And a rock feels no pain and an island nev
