The Water Is Wide Lyrics

The water is wide, I can't get over
And nor do I have wings to fly
Give me a boat, that will carry two
And both shall row; my love and I

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

The water is wide, I can't get over
And nor do I have wings to fly
Give me a boat, that will carry two
And both shall row; my love and I

Someday I hope to love again.
