[bodytext] => It may have been that piece of wood That drifted slowly by. It might have been some other craft That pushed the waters high. It could have been the emotion That cut it like a knife, And altered your chosen course in The river of your life. By then, your boat was sinking fast, Below the water line, And, pulling hard for the shore Though running out of time; You called to me across the world, A heart through so much strife, To rescue you from drowning in The river of your life It might have been the fleeting sand That stopped you in your fall. It may have been that one true love That heard you in your call. It could have been that solid rock That grazed your wounded heart. In certainty, it was my soul That flew to take your part. We pulled ourselves up on the beach And lay down on the shore. As I settled down beside you, And held you evermore, We bound ourselves together: Joined throughout this life. We saved ourselves from dying in The river of your life.
