When

I was a little girl

I had a rag doll

Only doll

I've ever owned

Now

I love you just the way

I loved that rag doll

But only now my love has grown

And it gets stronger

In every way

And it gets deeper

Let me say

That it gets higher

Day by day

Ooh

I love you my oh my

Yeah river deep mountain high

Yeah yeah yeah

If

I lost you would

I cry

Oh

I love you baby

Baby baby

When you were a young boy

Did you have a puppy

That always followed you around

Well

I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy

No

I'll never let you down 'Cause it flows

Farther

Like a river falls

And it gets bigger baby

And heaven knows

And it gets sweeter baby

As it grows

Ooh

I love you my oh my

Yeah river deep mountain high

Yeah yeah yeah

If

I lost you would

I cry

Oh

I love you baby

Baby baby baby

I love you baby

As the flower loves the spring

And

I could love you baby

Like a robin loves to sing

And

I love you baby

Like a schoolboy likes his parents

And

I love you baby

River deep mountain high

Oh baby baby

Baby baby baby

Oh

I love you my oh my

Yeah river deep mountain high

Yeah yeah yeah

If

I lost you would

I cry

Lord

I love you baby

Baby baby baby
