When you were a young girl
|
did you have a rag doll
|
the only doll you ever owned
|
well you can treat me
|
the way you used to treat that rag doll
|
but hurry up cause I'm gettin old
|
and I get older baby, day by day
|
and it gets stronger baby, let me say
|
and it goes deeper baby,
|
than you'll ever know
|
stand back baby, and watch my love grow
|
|
and do I love you, my oh my
|
river deep, mountain high
|
If I lost you would I cry
|
bet your life, baby
|
|
when you were a young girl
|
did you have a puppy
|
that always followed you around
|
well you can treat me
|
the way you used to treat that puppy, baby
|
I swear I'll never put you down, no I won't
|
and I get thankful baby, in every way
|
and it gets less painful baby, let me say
|
and I'm gona love you every night and day
|
look out baby, my love way is comin' your way
|
yes it is
|
|
and do I love you my oh my
|
river deep, mountain high
|
and if I lost you would I cry
|
bet your life, baby
|
|
I love you baby like a flower needs the spring
|
I love you baby like Aretha Franklin needs to sing
|
and I love you baby like a schoolboy loves his pie
|
I love you baby, river deep, mountain high
|
well take it higher..higher..
