The Water Is Wide

Lyricist:Traditional english folk song
Composer:Traditional english folk song 1600s

The water is wide, I cannot cross o'er
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And we shall sail, my love and I

O'love is gentle and love is kind
And love is flower when first it is new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like the morning dew

There is a ship and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
I know not if I sink or swim

The water is wide, I cannot cross o'er.
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And we shall sail, my love and I
