[00:00.00]I Am A Rock (Alternate) - Paul Simon (保罗·西蒙)
[00:04.02]Written by：Paul Simon
[00:08.04]A winter's day
[00:08.97]
[00:12.91]In a deep and dark december
[00:15.99]
[00:20.98]I am alone
[00:25.73]Gazing from my window to the streets below
[00:29.58]On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
[00:32.66]
[00:33.23]I am a rock
[00:34.38]
[00:35.29]I am an island
[00:39.04]
[00:44.84]I've built walls
[00:46.20]
[00:49.59]A fortress deep and mighty
[00:52.32]
[00:55.67]That none may penetrate
[00:59.23]
[01:00.50]I have no need of friendship friendship causes pain
[01:04.64]It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
[01:07.52]
[01:08.13]I am a rock
[01:09.23]
[01:09.97]I am an island
[01:13.92]
[01:18.74]Don't talk of love
[01:19.87]
[01:22.36]But I've heard the words before
[01:25.67]
[01:28.59]It's sleeping in my memory
[01:32.31]
[01:33.34]I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
[01:37.52]If I never loved I never would have cried
[01:40.56]I am a rock
[01:42.27]
[01:43.04]I am an island
[01:46.83]
[01:51.24]I have my books
[01:52.47]
[01:55.14]And my poetry to protect me
[01:58.39]
[02:01.45]I am shielded in my armor
[02:04.72]
[02:06.59]Hiding in my room safe within my womb
[02:10.30]I touch no one and no one touches me
[02:13.07]
[02:13.79]I am a rock
[02:14.97]
[02:15.73]I am an island
[02:19.37]
[02:24.31]And a rock feels no pain
[02:26.62]
[02:27.35]And an island never cries
