The water is wide, I cannot get 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 handsome and love is fine
And love's a jewel when it's first new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew
There is a ship, it’s sailing the sea
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/the-water-is-wide-lyrics-eva-cassidy.html ]
It’s loaded deep as deep can be
But not so deep as my love for him
I know not if I sink or swim
The water is wide, I cannot get over
And 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
