The mountain's high and the valley so deep Can't get across to the other sideDon't you give up baby, don't you cry Don't you give up till I reach the other sideI was lonely baby, I couldn't sleep The night they took you from my soulI was a lonely son, until you became my gun And then I saw the spark of loveAnd then you started something up aboveWell I know someday we will meet again But I don't know exactly where or whenBut baby if they had their way We'll meet again some other dayThe mountain's high and the valley so deep Can't get across to the other sideDon't you give up baby, don't you cry Don't you give up till I reach the other sideDon't you give up baby, don't you cry Don't you give up till I reach the other side
