| Lyrics: | (Traditional)
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. |
