Solid Rock Lyrics by Dire Straits

Solid Rock Lyrics

    Well take a look at that
    I made a castle in the sand
    Saying this is where it's at you know
    Couldn't understand now
    If I realised that the chances were slim
    How come I'm so surprised when the tide rolled in

    I wanna live on solid rock
    I'm gonna live on solid rock
    I wanna give I don't wanna be blocked
    I'm gonna live on solid rock

    Well I'm sick of potential
    I'm sick of vanity now
    I'm sticking to essential reality now
    I don't know what's worse
    Try to make a silk purse
    Living an illusion living in confusion

    Well a house of cards
    Was never built for shock
    You could blow it down in any kind of weather
    Now two solid rocks two solid blocks
    You know they're gonna stick
    Yeah they're gonna stick together

    Because the heart you break
    That's the one that you rely on
    The bed that you make
    That's the one you gotta lie on
    When you point, your finger cos your plan fell through
    You got three more fingers pointing back at you

    I wanna live on solid rock
    I'm gonna live on solid rock
    I wanna give I don't wanna be blocked
    I'm gonna live on solid rock
    I'm solid rock now
