Gifts and the Raft Lyrics

I'm afraid, but I'm on my way and in your place, a brief rainbow
Maybe you'll stay and furnish our home
I should never, ever, ever let you go

Smooth sailing
Who's running?

Yeah, it seems like everything about peace
even every field that we freed
even all the days in the haze in the heat
Nothing causes more alarm than your absence form my sheets

Can we agree?
Can we agree now?

Cheers and gratitude to all and God bless ya
Tears and gratitude to all, but who's listening?
Cheers and gratitude to all and God bless ya

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
