This Old Raft - Dean Brody

I built a raft out of a broken heart

Gathered the pieces that love had torn apart

So I’d never get carried away again like that

Tired of falling in and so I built a raft

But your love was a river I couldn’t cross

You swept me over your waterfall

Now I’m at your mercy, there’s no turning back

'Cause your love was a river too strong for this old raft

These planks and ropes have seen some storms

The rudder’s gone, the sail is torn

So whereever you run, I’m bound to roam

With this old heart of planks and ropes

'Cause your love was a river I couldn’t cross

You swept me over your waterfall

Now I’m at your mercy, there’s no turning back

'Cause your love was a river too strong for this old raft

If 10,000 miles is how far you go

You’ll never again have to be alone

Through long, dark canyons to desert floors

I’ll be your friend 'til that golden shore

'Cause your love was a river I couldn’t cross

You swept me over your waterfall

Now I’m at your mercy and I ain’t turning back

'Cause your love was a river too strong for this old raft

Yeah, your love was a river too strong for this old raft
