SOLID ROCK

Music & lyrics by Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler 1980

-----------------------------------------------------

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
