Lyrics
They tell me that the river s too deep, they tell me that the river s too deep, but they don t know i ve got to get there and hold her in my arms
cause i can hear her saying come to me baby
They tell me that the river s too deep, cause i can hear her saying come to me baby
just a one more time like i did before when she was mine all mine
I ve got a lover way over there, when i get back i ain t going nowhere
I m gonna get to you, because the river ain t deep enough or mountain ain t steep enough Miracles, but they don t know i ve got to get there and hold her in my arms
When i get back i ain t going nowhere, i m gonna get to you, i m going to stay
I m gonna stay, to keep me from your side
When i get back i ain t going nowhere, and don t you know The, i got to ya ya ya
I m gonna get to you, i can hear her calling to me
And don t you know, and it s much too wide for you can t make it over to the other side
and i know that s where i should be
And i know that s where i should be, no matter what i have to do, i m gonna get to you
she s callin my name
But they don t know i ve got to get there and hold her in my arms, she s callin my name, no matter what i have to do
I m going away, i m going away
They tell me that the river s too deep, and it s much too wide for you can t get across to the other side Over, i m gonna stay
I ve got a lover way over there, she s callin my name
I m gonna get to you, i ve got a lover way over there on the mountainside, i got to ya ya ya
To keep me from your side, cause i can hear her saying come to me baby
Cause i can hear her saying come to me baby, they tell me that the river s too deep
But they don t know i ve got to get there and hold her in my arms, they tell me that the river s too deep Way, so sweet and so plain
because the river ain t deep enough or mountain ain t steep enough
