The River is Wide

Can't you feel it, baby baby?
Can't you feel it, baby baby?
Baby, can't you see...

That the river gets wide
The river gets long now
The water gets deep
As our love gets strong now
Oh baby don't fight
Cause girl, all tonight
You belong to me...

The sky was clear on that windy day.
'Til the clean blue sky began to turn to gray
The lightning flashed the thunder rolled above
And fell a drop of rain start to feel our love

And the river gets wide
The river gets long now
The feeling gettin' deep
As our love gets strong now
So baby don't fight
Cause girl, all tonight
You belong to me

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

And the river gets wide
The river gets long now
The feeling gettin' deep
As our love gets strong now
So baby don't fight
Cause girl, all tonight
You belong to me

It's too late to turn the tide, baby
It's too late to hide away, baby
It's too late so don't deny me, can you see...

And the river gets wide
The river gets long now
The water gettin' deep
As our love gets strong now
So baby don't fight
Cause girl, all tonight
You belong to me

And the river gets wide
The river gets long now
The water gettin' deep
As our love gets strong now
So baby don't fight
Cause girl, all tonight
You belong to me
