Lyrics This Old Raft - Dean Brody

This Old Raft

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
