VERSE 1:
A winter’s day - in a deep and dark December
I am alo-o-one
Gazing from my window - to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock - I am an is-land

VERSE 2:
I’ve built walls - a fortress deep and mighty
That none - may - pe-netrate
I have no need of friendship - friendship causes pain
Its laughter and its loving I disdain
I am a rock - I am an is-land

VERSE 3:
Don’t talk of love - but I’ve - heard - the word - before
It’s slee-ping in my me-mory
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 is-land

VERSE 4:
I have my books - and my - poetry to protect me
I am shiel-ded in my ar-mor
Hiding in my room - safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock - I am an is-land

OUTRO:
And a rock feels no pain
And an island ne-ver cries
