Gold Heart Locket

all night long IæŠ³e been riding riding
I should have been there by now
but these old county roads
got a lot of deep holes
and the rain keeps pouring down
the bridge is washed out and the rising rising
waters of the river rush by
and IæŠ¦ up to my fenders in mud
and to my witness above
IæŠ¦ really stuck this time
IæŠ³e got a gold heart locket on a silver chain
clinched tight in my fist in the pouring rain
and the only road back home again is all but washed away
IæŠ¦ going to cross that river tonight
no matter what it takes 
although I might die trying
my true love will remain
in a gold heart locket on a silver chain

open it up and sheæŠ¯ lovely lovely
eyes of hazel green
but I close it up fast 
because the rain gets past
and lays a tear down on her cheek
I promised her once that I would never ever
break her heart again
so lord take me there in a silent prayer
and her locket in my hand
the last thing I remember 
I was fearing for my life
she was calling out my name 
from over on the other side
I reached out to hold her
but the break was just too strong
now the silence just gets colder
as the river rages on
