When you were a little girl
The only doll you've ever owned
Just the way you loved that rag doll
But only now my love has grown
And it gets stronger in every way
And it gets deeper baby, let me say
And it gets higher, day by day
River deep, mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
When you were a young girl
That always followed you around
Well I'm gonna be as faithful
You know I'll never let you down
River deep, mountain high
And if I lost you would I cry
Like a flower loves the spring
Like a robin loves to sing
Like a schoolboy loves his pi
River deep, mountain high
River deep, mountain high
If I lost you would I cry
