Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ain't no valley low, ain't no river wide enough;
Baby if you need me call me no matter where you are,
No matter how far;
Just call my name; I'll be there in a hurry;
You don't have to worry,
'Cause baby there ain't no mountain high enough,
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe.
Remember the day I set you free
I told you you could always count on me
From that day on, I made a vow,
I'll be there when you want me,
Some way, some how.
'Cause baby there ain't no mountain high enough,
Ain't no valley low enough,
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe.
My love is alive
Way down in my heart
Although we are miles apart
If you ever need a helping hand,
I'll be there on the double
As fast as I can.
Don't you know that there
Ain't no mountain high enough,
Ain't no valley low enough,
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe.
No wind no rain or winters cold can stop me baby,
'Cause you are my goal.
If you're ever in trouble;
I'll be there on the double.
Just send for me, oh baby.
If you need me call me no matter where you are,
No matter how far;
Just call my name; I'll be there in a hurry;
You don't have to worry,
'Cause baby there ain't no mountain high enough,
Ain't no valley low enough,
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you babe.

At the age of 17, I snuck into the Garage just to hear her sing this song. It was the greatest night of my life. And I was hooked on the NYC nightlife that night forever. 40 years later it brings back so many memories. A timeless song. Thank you Jocelyn Brown.
@biancahu698

@Swoop2565
You were lucky to be able to sneak into the Garage …A heroic fete 👍🏿

I too a Paradise Garage Core Membership Card owner from 1978- 1987 was @ the same show, although Jocelyn Brown did perform many venues there I loved the Garage and on every Saturday, Noel Garcia, one of the most beautiful Puerto Rican men, I have ever seen, greeted me with warmth, love and acceptance that I knew, I had found home! so many of our Paradise Garage family, have transitioned yet, I cab remember the faces abd some names, of beautiful people together in spirit, dancing into musical bliss, I the name of love! RIP Larry Levan. Noel Garcia. Kenny Ubanks. Keith Harrington
The greatest moments of my life, I found out who I am and just how valuable my presence was then and even now! memories of Paradise Garage 84 King Street NY Ny......
@rosellediaz1998
I agree one of the most best club music songs to dance to at club 1018
@rosellediaz1998
THE GARAGE
@Blackgodamen26
The one and only Club Zanzibar 🐆🐅 and Club 88 used to always rock this legendary 🏆 joint. Great memories 👍🏿💯
@jeffreytwentyseven
Decades later, more than ever, I feel the epic moments you/we all felt on the world's best dance floors listening to this masterpiece.
My club was Junior Vasquez's Sound Factory but I also managed to get into Studio 54, the Garage, the Saint, and Flamingo while I was still practically a child.
This life energy is not only recorded in our memory, both individual and collective, it is encoded into our cells and molecules. And undoubtedly into our eternal ethereal bodies as well. Thank you God for bringing us this music of the spheres and the inspired souls like Larry Levan and Jocelyn Brown and others who brought it to us.

my 12 year son heard the original one off the Guardians Of The Galaxy soundtrack, needless to say the kid was totally blown away by this version...
Larry's still winning hearts in 2023!

Got out of work early. They asked if I wanted to stay. I said No. Sun is setting soon. And I'm jamming to Inner life. Love it. That synth towards the end...I never noticed. I'm only 47. I grew up on House music, but have always been a student of what came before.
This can't be beat!
