The Water is Wide Songtext
von LEAH

The water is wide ′n I can't cross o′er,
'n neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row,
My love and I

For love is gentle and love is kind
And love is sweet when first it's new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like mornin′ dew


There is a ship and it 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

The water is wide ′n I can't cross o′er
'n neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row,
My love and I

And both shall row,
My love and I
