Nocturama

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
