The water is wide, i can not get o’er
And neither have i wings to fly
Give me a boat that will carry two
And both shall row… my love and i.

Their love is plentive… o’er there it grows
It grows and blossoms like a rose
It has a sweet and pleasant smell
No flower on earth can it excel.

The ship there is and she 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.

Oh, love is handsome and love is fine
And loves a jewel when it is new
But rain it above it grows so cold
And fades away like morning dew.

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)

The water is wide, I can not cross over
Neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
and both shall row, my love and I

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

The water is wide, I can not cross over
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

The water is wide
I can’t cross over
And neither have
I wings to fly
Build me a boat
That can carry two
And both shall row
My love and i

There is a ship
And she sails the sea
She’s loaded deep
As deep can be
But not so deep
As the love i’m in
I know not how
I sink or swim

Oh love is handsome
And love is fine
The sweetest flower
When first it’s new
But love grows old
And waxes cold
And fades away
Like summer dew

Build me a boat
That can carry two
And both shall row
My love and i
And both shall row
My love and i

The water is wide i cant cross o’er
And neither i have wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row – my love and i

Now love is gentle love is kind
The sweetest flower when first its new
But love grows cold and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew

There is a ship she sails the sea
Shes loaded deep as deep as can be
But not as deep as the love im in
I know not how i sink or swim

The water is wide i cant cross o’er
And neither i have 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

The water is wide
Original lyrics

The water is wide. i cannot get o’er
And neither have i wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row my love and i

I leaned my back up against an oak
I thought it was a trusty tree
But first it swayed and then it broke
And so my false love did unto me

Oh love is handsome and love is kind
And love’s a jewel when it is new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew
Morning dew
Morning dew
Like morning dew

For 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 now how i sink or swim

Repeat ii then i

The water is wide
I can’t cross over
And neither i
Have wings to fly
Give me a boat
That can carry two
And both shall row
My love and i

Now 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
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

The water is wide
I can’t cross over
And neither i
Have 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
