The water is wide
The water is wide
I cant across over
I can't cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
And neither have I wings to fly
Build me a boat that can carry two
Build me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row
And both shall row
My love and I
My love and I
There is a ship and the sails the sea
There is a ship and the sails the sea
Shes loaded deep as deep can be
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not so deep as the love I'm in
But not so deep as the love I'm in
I know not how I sink or swim
I know not how I sink or swim
Oh love is handsome
Oh, love is handsome
And love is kind
And love is kind
And love is a folwer when first is new
And love is a flower when first it's new
But love grows old and wax is cold
But love grows old and wax grows cold
And fades away like morning dew
And fades away like morning dew
