The Water Is Wide

The water is wide

I can't cross over

And neither have

I wings to fly

Build me a boat

That can carry two

And both shall row

My love and iThere is a ship

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 how

I sink or swimOh love is handsome

And love is fine

The sweetest flower

When first it's new

But love grows old

And waxes cold

And fades away

Like summer dewBuild me a boat

That can carry two

And both shall row

My love and i

And both shall row

My love and i
