The Water Is Wide |
The water is wide, I can’t cross o’er |
And neither have I wings to fly |
Give me a boat that can carry two |
And we shall sail, my love and I |
Oh love is gentle and love is kind |
And love’s a flower when first it’s new |
But love grows old and waxes cold |
And fades away like morning dew |
There is a ship, and she sails the sea |
She’s loaded deep as deep can be |
But not as deep as the love I’m in |
I know not how I sink or swim |
The water is wide, I can’t cross o’er |
And neither have I wings to fly |
Give me a boat that can carry two |
And we shall sail, my love and I |
