Deacon Blue and Ricky Ross - The River Is Wide lyrics

rate me

The river is wide

The river is wide

The river is as broad and white as satan's smile

The soul of man can never hide

The river is wide

The river is wide

The river is calm

The river is calm

The river's as safe as a babe asleep in a mamma's arms

The soul of man needs a soothing balm

The river is calm

The river is calm

The day is long

The day is long

The day's own light is faint and wan

I'm as weak as I am strong

The river is wide

The day is long
