Deep As the River - Harry Belafonte

Deep As The River so deep is my loneliness

Deep As The River when we're apart

Cold as the river so cold are my empty arms

Cold as the river my empty heart

The leaves all a tremble, tremble no more

The night the stars all assemble and listen to my sigh

Swift as the river that's running to kiss the sea

Swift as the river may you come back to me

Swift as the river that's running to kiss the sea

Swift as the river may you come back to me
