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 kind
Shines like a jewel
When first it's new
But love grows cold
And love grows old
And lights my life
Like the morning dew
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

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 kind
Shines like a jewel
When first it's new
But love grows cold
And love grows old
And lights my life
Like the morning dew
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
I can't cross over
And neither have
I wings to fly
Build me a boat
That can carry two
And both shall row

And she sails the sea
She's loaded deep

But not so deep
As the love I'm in

Oh love is handsome
And love is kind
Shines like a jewel
When first it's new
But love grows cold
And love grows old
And lights my life
Like the morning dew
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
