the marvelettes - way over there (the marvelettes version) lyrics

i’ve got a lover way over there, at the mountainside
and i know that’s where i should be
oh, don’t you know?
i’ve got a lover way over there, up off the river wide
and i can hear him calling to me
oh, he’s calling my name
so sweet and so fine
can’t you hear him saying
(come up, come up)
“i’m on my way, i’m gonna stay”
well, they tell me that the river’s too deep
and it’s much too wide
for i can’t make it over to the other side
but don’t you know?
i’ve got to get there, and hold him in my arms
just one more time, like i did before
when he was mine, all mine
can’t you hear him saying
(come up, come up)
“i’m on my way, i’m gonna stay”
woah!
they tell me that the river’s too deep
and it’s much too wide
for i can’t make it over to the other side
but don’t you know?
i’ve got to get there and hold him in my arms
just one more time, like i did before
when he was mine, all mine
can’t you hear him saying
(come up, come up, come up)
(yeah, yeah)
“i’m on my way, i’m gonna stay”
i’m gonna come to you
no matter what i have to do
woah!
the mountains ain’t steep enough
river ain’t deep enough
to keep me from your side
oh, woah
woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
oh woah
(come up, come up, come up)
(yeah, yeah)
