The water is wide i cannot get over
and neither have i wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row my love and i
Oh love is handsome and love is fine
and love's a jewel when it's first new
but love grows old and waxes cold
and fades away like morning dew
There is a ship it’s 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 over
and neither have i wings to fly
give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row my love and i
And both shall row my love and i
