The water is wide, I can't cross over
The water is wide, I can\'t cross over
The water is wide, I can\'t cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
And neither have I wings to fly
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
Give me a boat that can carry two
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
Oh, love is gentle and love is kind
Oh, love is gentle and love is kind
Oh, love is gentle and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it's new
The sweetest flower when first it\'s new
The sweetest flower when first it\'s new
But love grows old and waxes cold
But love grows old and waxes cold
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew
And fades away like morning dew
And fades away like morning dew
There is a ship and she sails the sea
There is a ship and she sails the sea
There is a ship and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
She\'s loaded deep as deep can be
She\'s loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
But not as deep as the love I\'m in
But not as deep as the love I\'m in
I know not how I sink or swim
I know not how I sink or swim
I know not how I sink or swim
The water is wide, I can't cross over
The water is wide, I can\'t cross over
The water is wide, I can\'t cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
And neither have I wings to fly
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
Give me a boat that can carry two
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
