The water is wide I can't cross o'er
|
And neither have I wings to fly
|
Give me a boat that can carry two
|
And both shall row, my love and I
|
|
O love is handsome love is fine
|
Gay as a jewel when first it's new
|
And love grows old and ever bold
|
And shines as bright as morning dew
|
|
A ship there is 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 swim
|
|
The water is wide I can't cross o'er
|
And neither have I wings to fly
|
Give me a boat that can carry two
|
