|
The water is wide
|
I can't cross over
|
And neither have I 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 love grows old
|
And waxes cold
|
And fades away like 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 how
|
I sink or swim
|
|
** repeat
|
|
And both shall row
|
My love and I
|
|
