The water is wide I cannot get o'er
|
And neither have i wings to fly
|
Give me a boat That will carry two
|
And both shall row, my love and i
|
|
Where love is planted Oh there it grows
|
It grows and blossoms like a rose
|
It has a sweet And pleasant smell
|
No flower on earth can it excel
|
|
A ship there is And she sails the sea
|
Shes loaded deep as deep can be
|
But not so deep As the love im in
|
I know not if i sink or swim
|
|
Oh love is handsome And love is fine
|
And loves a jewel while it is new
|
But when its old It grows so cold
|
And fades away like morning dew
|
