That Was a River
(Susan Longacre/Rick Giles; as sung by Collin Raye)


()                                              
I've seen that look before; here comes that doubt again
                                              
You think that girl we saw was more than just a friend
                                
Yes there was a time I thought she had it all
                                                  
She meant the world to me, back when the world was small


                              
That was a river, this is the ocean
                              
That never carried this much emotion
                              
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
                              
That was a river, this is the ocean


Key change (up a whole step)

                                             
The love we've had before can never change this one
                                             
We're not imprisoned by the past we've brought along
                                  
It's just you and me, just one ship in the night
                                           
There are no boundaries, there is no end in sight


                              
That was a river, this is the ocean
                              
That never carried this much emotion
                              
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
                              
That was a river, this is the ocean

                                
Nothing compares to this deep devotion
                               
That was a river, this is the ocean
                               
That was a river, this is the ocean.
