Kingston Trio - The River Is Wide lyrics

(Chorus)

I saw the light

I've been baptised

By the fire in your touch

And the flame in your eyes

I'm born to love again

I'm a brand new man

Well the whole town's talking

'Bout the line I'm walking

That leads right to your door

Oh how I used to roam

I was a rolling stone

I used to have a wild side

They say a country-mile wide

I'd burn those beer joints down

That's all changed now

You turned my life around

(Repeat chorus)

I used to love 'em and leave 'em

I'd brag about my freedom

How no one could tie me down

Then I met you

Now my heart beats true

Baby you and me together

Feels more like forever

Than anything I've ever known

We're right on track

I ain't looking back

(Repeat chorus three times)

I'm born to love again

I'm a brand new man
