Rock Of Gibraltar Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Let me say this to you 

Ill be steadfast and true 

My love will never falter 

The sea would crash about us 

The waves would lash about us 

Ill be your Rock of Gibraltar 

Sometimes its hard 

When were both caught off guard 

Theres nothing I would ever alter 

The wind could howl round our ears 

For the next thousand years 

Id still be your Rock of Gibraltar 

Yes, I'll be your Rock of Gibraltar 

Oh, I'll be your Rock of Gibraltar 

Well, the best thing I done 

Was to make you the one 

Who Id walk with down to the altar 

And youd stand by me 

And together wed be 

That great steady Rock of Gibraltar 

Yes, the great steady Rock of Gibraltar 

Oh, the 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 

When you held me so tight 

Your great, steady Rock of Gibraltar 

Oh, your great, steady Rock of Gibraltar 

Yeah, 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 

They could soon be betrayed 

Betrayed like the Rock of Gibraltar 

Betrayed like the Rock of Gibraltar 

Yes, betrayed like the Rock of Gibraltar
