Lyrics
The water is wide, I cannot cross o’er And neither have I wings to fly Oh, build me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I There is a ship and she sails the seas She’s laden deep, as deep can be But not so deep as the love I’m in I know not if I sink or swim Oh, love is handsome, and love is fine Bright as a jewel when first it’s new But love grows old and waxes cold And fades away like the morning dew The water is wide, I cannot cross o’er And neither have I the wings to fly Oh, build me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I The water is wide, I cannot cross o’er And neither have I the wings to fly Oh, build me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I There is a ship and she sails the seas She’s laden deep, as deep can be But not so deep as the love I’m in I know not if I sink or swim Oh, love is handsome, and love is fine Bright as a jewel when first it’s new But love grows old and waxes cold And fades away like the morning dew The water is wide, I cannot cross o’er And neither have I the wings to fly Oh, build me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I
