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
Don't worry, baby
Just call my name, I'll be there in a hurry
You don't need to worry
Ain't no valley low 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, darlin' (yeah, baby)
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
(Oh no, darlin') No wind, no rain
Or winter's cold can stop me, baby
(Oh no) 'Cause you are my goal
If you're ever in trouble
I'll be there on the double
Just send for me, oh baby
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
Just 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
Don't you know that there
Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough

I always think of this scene whenever this song plays. It’s been years, but these types of scenes stay with you for life. Great acting by Susan Sarandon and the kids. ❤️

I’m too young to think of this scene but still love the movie. I always think of that one scene in guardians of the galaxy 1

Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts did such an amazing job on this movie. One of my childhood favorites, an unforgettable movie for sure. I have watched it so many times and the impact is still the same each time. One of a kind!
