Olivia Newton-John - The River's Too Wide lyrics

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

'Til 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 cutting 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 cutting goes too deep for mending

It looks like an unhappy ending

'Cause the river's too wide

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 cutting goes too deep for mending

It looks like an unhappy ending

'Cause the river's too wide

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 cutting goes too deep for mending

It looks like an unhappy ending

'Cause the river's too wide

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 cutting goes too deep for mending

It looks like an unhappy ending

'Cause the river's too wide
