Lyrics The River Is Wide - The Grass Roots

The sky was clear on that windy day
Til the clear blue sky began to turn to gray
The lightning flashed, the thunder roared above
Then fell a drop of rain to start our love
Let the river get wide, the river gets long now
The water runs deep as our love gets strong now
So baby don′t you fight and say you belong now to me
Upon the roof we heard the gentle rain
With the rhythm of our heartbeats down it came
As it hit each rock our hearts could feel the pain
No one on earth can stop a drop of rain
And the river get wide, the river gets long now
The water runs deep as our love gets strong now
So baby don't you fight and say you belong now to me
Let the river get wide, the river gets long now
The water runs deep as our love gets strong now
So baby don′t you fight and say you belong now to me, yeah
Let the river get wide, the river gets long now
The water runs deep as our love gets strong now
So baby don't you fight and say you belong now to me
