Song Pattern:

------

*Part A*

There is not a river wide

*Part B*

Not a mountain high

*PART A* (play 4 times)

And neither sin nor evil

Could change how I feel inside

Could change how I feel inside

Not all the strength of the ocean

*PART B*

Not all the heat from the sun, from the sun

*PART C*

No others have tried, I just can't deny

*PART A* (play twice)

For me you are the one

For me you are the one

*PART D* (play twice)

But true love is priceless

For true love we pay a price

*PART E*

But there's nothing can keep me from loving you

not fire, no not ice

not fire, no not ice

*PART A*

Like a hero or the champion

*PART B*

You are the best, you're the best

*PART A* (play four times)

Like religion or superstition

With you I am blessed

With you I am blessed

Now the river may grow wider

*PART B*

The mountains may reach past the sky

*PART C*

And whether or not you feel same

*PART A* (play twice)

My love shall never die

My love shall never die

*PART D* (play twice)

But true love is give and take

True love is sacrifice

*PART E*

But there's nothing can keep me from loving you

Not fire no not ice

Not fire no not ice
