Lyrics

[00:06.50] A winter's day
[00:11.00] In a deep and dark December
[00:15.00]
[00:19.25] I am alone
[00:24.00] Gazing from my window
[00:26.00] To the streets below
[00:27.50] On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
[00:31.50] I am a Rock
[00:33.50] I am an Island
[00:37.50]
[00:44.25] I've built walls
[00:49.00] A fortress deep and mighty
[00:55.14] That none may penetrate
[01:00.50] I have no need of friendship
[01:02.75] Friendship causes pain
[01:04.50] It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
[01:08.00] I am a Rock
[01:10.00] I am an Island
[01:14.00]
[01:21.00] Don't talk of love
[01:25.14] Well I've heard the word before
[01:32.00] It's sleeping in my memory
[01:37.00] I won't disturb the slumber
[01:39.25] Of feelings that have died
[01:41.25] If I never loved I never would have cried
[01:45.00] I am a Rock
[01:47.00] I am an Island
[01:51.00]
[01:57.75] I have my books
[02:02.00] And my poetry to protect me
[02:08.50] I am shielded in my armor
[02:14.00] Hiding in my room
[02:16.25] Safe within my womb
[02:18.00] I touch no one and no one touches me
[02:22.00] I am a Rock
[02:24.00] I am an Island
[02:28.00]
[02:30.69] And a Rock feels no pain
[02:34.25] And an Island never cries
[02:39.00]
