The River`s Too Wide — текст песни (Olivia Newton-John)

(Morrison)

The river`s too wide now for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build bridges for walking
`Cause the river`s too wide

A gentle stream once flowed between us
But love could cross it easily
Till stormy skies brought bitter teardrops
And made that stream a raging river
Come between you and me

The river`s too wide now for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build bridges for walking
There`s no getting to the other side

The river`s too wide now for crossing
The current goes too deep for mending
It looks like an unhappy ending
`Cause the river`s too wide

Good lessons learned are not forgotten
We gave up love to save our pride
Next time I`m faced with rising waters
I`ll build a bridge of love and kindness
Reaching to the other side

The river`s too wide now for crossing
The waters rush too loud for talking
We never build bridges for walking
There`s no getting to the other side

The river`s too wide now for crossing
The current goes too deep for mending
It looks like an unhappy ending
`Cause the river`s too wide
