The water is wide
I cannot get o'er
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and IO love is handsomeand love is fine
And love's a jewel while its first new
But love grows old, and white's so cold
And fades away like morning dew
there is a ship, its sailing the sea
It's loaded deep as deep can be
but not so deep as my love for him
I know not if I sink or swim
The water is wide
I cannot get o'er
and neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that will carry two
And both shall row my love and IAnd both shall row my love and I
