The Raft

The RaftWords and music by Catie Curtis and May-Lily LeeVerse 1Down a dirt road there’s a house by the water’s edgeI’m going back there again Where voices fill the rafters with songIt’s a long drive, miles that never end Til you’re turning around the last bend And you see inside the lights are onWhere I belong, belong, belongCHORUSSafe with the friends I hold on toAs we’re tossed and blown through the yearsI return because I rememberWho I really am when I’m hereTrue, we are pieces of light from the moonWe bring it all into the room Where it’s all right to take a chanceWe receive even as much as we giveIt’s the way that I wish I could liveEven when we don’t know how to danceWe dance, we dance, we danceCHORUSSafe with the friends we hold on toAs we’re tossed and blown through the yearsWe return because we rememberWho we really are when we’re hereBRIDGE:If it rains we’re gonna build a raft and hold onturning the tears to laughsAnd we won’t go alone through the dark unknown  Down a dirt road there’s a house by the water’s edgeGoing back there againLooking for the light insideCHORUSSafe with the friends I hold on toAs we’re tossed and blown through the yearsI return because I rememberWho I really am when I’m hereWho we really are when we’re here
