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
|
