The Water Is Wide

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

The water is wide, I can not get over

And neither have I wings to fly

Give me a boat that will carry two

And both shall row, my love and IWhere love is planted, oh there it grows

It grows and blossoms like a rose

It has a sweet and pleasant smell

No flower on earth can it excelA ship there is and she sails the sea

She's loaded deep as deep can be

But not so deep as the love I'm in

I know not if I sink or swimOh love is handsome and love is fine

And love's a jewel while it is new

But when it is old, it grows so cold

And fades away like morning dew

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
