Lyrics Rock Of Gibraltar - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Rock Of Gibraltar

Let me say this to you
I’ll be steadfast and true
And my love will never falter
The sea would crash about us The waves would lash about us
I’ll be your Rock of Gibraltar
Sometimes it’s hard
And we’re both caught off guard
But there’s nothing I would ever alter
The wind could howl round our ears
For the next thousand years
I’d still be your Rock of Gibraltar
The best thing I done
Was to make you the one
Who I’d walk with down to the altar
You’d stand by me And together we’d be That great, steady Rock of Gibraltar
Under the big yellow moon
On our honeymoon
I took you on a trip to Malta
And all through the night
You held me so tight
Your great, steady Rock of Gibraltar
Could the powers that be Ever foresee
That things could so utterly alter?
All the plans that we laid
Could soon be betrayed
Betrayed like the Rock of Gibraltar
