Just one step at a time
And closer to destiny
I knew at a glance
There'd always be a chance for me
With someone I could live for
Nowhere I would rather be
Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
And stranger than fantasy
I knew from the start
It had to be the place for me
Someone that I would die for
There's no way I could ever leave
Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
And closer to destiny
I knew at a glance
There'd always be a chance for me
With someone I could live for
Nowhere I would rather be
Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
And stranger than fantasy
I knew from the start
It had to be the place for me
Someone that I would die for
There's no way I could ever leave
Is your love strong enough
Like a rock in the sea
Am I asking too much
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Is your love strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart
Strong enough?
Strong enough?
Just one beat of your heart

Strong enough to die for after “just one beat of your heart” or maybe in one?
Why did Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross choose this song/these lyrics for The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo?
Every time I hear it, in context of the film, I find myself thinking of all the girls Martin Vanger politely “invited” to his basement over the years.
The second option for this song is when Lisbeth Salander rolls up with a charismas gift to Mikael Blomkvist and sees him walking arm in arm with Erika Berger, this after she tells her father of how she met someone he would approve of, and then she gets disappointed in someone she is so fond of.
A "rock in the sea" can be viewed as a holdfast, something to tie down to. A rock in the sea can also be viewed as something that does not erode and wither away so easily.
