NO MAN IS AN ISLAND song lyrics
adapted by Joel Sattler from John Donne

lyrics revised and adapted from "Meditation XVII," by John Donne




No man is an island,
Entire of himself
Entire of himself
Each is a piece of the main
you must know yourself
You must know yourself

If you were washed away
washed away by the sea,
Washed away
then we all become much less
you as well as me
You as well as me

I'm a part of mankind
mankind part of me
Mankind part of me
nothing lasts forever
this was meant to be
This was meant to be

No man is an island,
Entire of himself.
Each is a piece of main
you must know yourself
You must know yourself

Every death takes from us
what we all could be
do not ask for whom the bell
it tolls for thee
