The River`s Too Wide — текст песни (newton-john olivia)

(Bob Morrison)
The river`s too wide now for crossing
The water`s rush too loud for talking
We never build bridges for walking
The river`s too wide for crossing
The 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 water`s 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 hurting goes too deep for mending
It looks like an unhappy ending
Cause the river`s too wide
But lessons learned are not forgotten
We gave our blood to save our pride
Next time I`m faced with raging waters
I`ll build a bridge of love and kindness
Reaching to the other side
The river`s too wide now for crossing
The water`s 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 hurting 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 water`s 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 hurting goes too deep for mending
It looks like an unhappy ending
Cause the river`s too wide...
