The Water Is Wide Lyrics
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
And neither I have wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row - my love and I
The sweetest flower when first its new
But love grows cold and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew
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
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

This song was actually my childhood lullabye, so it touches a special place in my heart. It is really such a beautiful sentiment about love, any kind of love.
