I guess love doesn't last So let's climb up on the raft We'll never make it on our own I don't want to drown alone The waves rise up and crash There's always a raft So let's climb up on the raft And have ourselves a laugh Who cares when we'll run ashore We're not drowning anymore It's not like you knew the last time Or the time before Somewhere below the waves sway ropes that broke and frayed Still tied to our anchors, right where they were laid Now if this stays afloat then I'll call it a boat

[lwimsett]

I'm not desperate but I guess that I could use some hope Well, love never lasts But it always leaves a raft So let's climb up on the raft And have ourselves a laugh If we run ashore I'll just like you all the more I'd rather be shipwrecked together Than on the ocean floor Love never lasts So let's climb up on the raft We'll never make it on our own I don't want to drown alone When waves come up and crash Then there's always a raft I know we're both raw and wet And it's as good as it gets

I always thought he just did funny music as well, but I started buying more of his albums ,and more of his music is serious than funny. This was a turn off at first, but now I really like it. He's very intelligent and it comes off in his music quite well.

hmm, i thought lynch was all funny but this was a good piece of work

For years it was smooth sailing with the waters calm

Then the ship starts failing, I was headed for a storm

Before I could even fear it or think of what to say

I'm standing in the shadows of the rising waves

I took a cold hard pounding, blow after blow

Tragic as a shipwreck, I was going down slow
