Fortress Sails Songtext
von Cerys Matthews

I′m gonna build myself a raft
And float the river down
I'll build myself a raft
In some other town

I′m going down to the river
I'm gonna take a rocking chair
If my loving arms don't fail
I′ll rock away from there

I′m gonna grow my hair so long
'Til it drags on the ground
I′ll tie it up, I'll tie it ′round
But I ain't no hand-me-down
No hand-me-down


Well, I can′t say I'm unaware
I can't feel misunderstood
I can′t blame a wayward prayer
For loving things that ain′t no good
Ain't no good

I can′t say I'm unaware
I can′t feel misunderstood
I can't blame a wayward prayer
For loving things that ain′t no good
That ain't no good

So I rock myself to sleep
I'm gonna rock myself to sleep
I′m gonna rock myself to sleep
′Til the answers grow on trees
They grow on trees
