the forum ('60s pop-folk) - the river is wide (1967 version) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the sky was clear on that windy day
and the clear blue sky began to turn to grey
the lightning flashed; the thunder roared above
then fell a drop of rain to start our love

[chorus]
(let the river get wide, the river gets long now
the water runs deep as our love gets strong now
oh baby, don’t fight and say you belong now to me)

[verse 2]
upon the roof we heard the gentle rain
with the rhythm of our heartbeat down it came
as it hit each rock it washed away the pain
no one on earth can stop one drop of rain

[chorus]
(can’t you feel it getting high? feel the river get long now
feel it getting deep as our love gets strong now
oh baby, don’t fight and say oh tonight you belong to me)

[bridge]
can’t you feel it, (baby, baby)?
can’t you feel it, (baby, baby)?
baby, don’t you see?
[chorus]
(now, the river getting wide, the river gets long now
the water runs deep as our love gets strong now
oh baby, don’t fight and say that oh tonight you belong to me)

[bridge]
it’s too late to turn the tide, baby
it’s too late to hide away, baby
it’s too late, oh don’t deny me (today)

[chorus]
like the river getting wide, the river gets long now
the water gets deep as our love gets strong now
oh baby, don’t fight, say oh tonight you belong to me
like the river getting wide, the river gets long now
the water gets deep as our love gets strong now
oh baby, don’t fight, say oh tonight you belong to me

[outro]
like the river getting wide, the river gets long now
