The water is wide

The water is wide I can´t cross over
And neither have I got wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i
Oh love is gentle and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it´s new
But the only love never waxing cold
Is the love he offers to me and you
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i
There´s a ship and she sails the sea
She´s loaded deep as deep can be
And even deeper than the love I´m in
If I step on board then our love begins
Got to step on board let our love begin
(water is wide and I´ve got to cross over)
And neither have I got wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i
Oh love is gentle and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it´s new
But the only love never waxing cold
Is the love he offers to me and you
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i
There´s a ship and she sails the sea
She´s loaded deep as deep can be
And even deeper than the love I´m in
If I step on board then our love begins
Got to step on board let our love begin
(water is wide and I´ve got to cross over)
