hollies – i am a rock lyrics
the hollies
i am a rock
(paul simon/art garfunkel)
track 6 on alb-m ‘would you believe’ june 1966
a winter’s day,
in a deep and dark december.
i am alone.
gazing from my window to the street below
on a freshly fallen, silent shroud of snow.
i am a rock. i am an island.
i build walls,
a fortress deep and mighty,
that none may penetrate.
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.
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.
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.
i am a rock. i am an island.
i am a rock. i am an island.
