The Marvelettes — Way Over There The Marvelettes Version

I've got a lover way over there, at the mountainside And I know that's where I should be Oh, don't you know? I've got a lover way over there, up off the river wide And I can hear him calling to me Oh, he's calling my name So sweet and so fine Can't you hear him saying (Come up, come up) "I'm on my way, I'm gonna stay" Well, they tell me that the river's too deep And it's much too wide For I can't make it over to the other side But don't you know? I've got to get there, and hold him in my arms Just one more time, like I did before When he was mine, all mine Can't you hear him saying (Come up, come up) "I'm on my way, I'm gonna stay" Woah! They tell me that the river's too deep And it's much too wide For I can't make it over to the other side But don't you know? I've got to get there and hold him in my arms Just one more time, like I did before When he was mine, all mine Can't you hear him saying (Come up, come up, come up) (Yeah, yeah) "I'm on my way, I'm gonna stay" I'm gonna come to you No matter what I have to do Woah! The mountains ain't steep enough River ain't deep enough To keep me from your side Oh, woah Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh woah (Come up, come up, come up) (Yeah, yeah)
