The Water is Wide
The water is wide, I can't cross o'er
and neither I have wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row - my love and I
A ship there is, 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 if I sink or swim
For love is handsome, and love is kind
and love's a jewel when first it's new
but love grows old, it grows so cold
and fades away like morning dew
Give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row - my love and I
and both shall row - my love and I
