The Water Is Wide – Lyrics

Performed by Marnie Pehrson, Jody Norris on guitar and Jack Morton on Harmonica.

The water is wide,
I can't cross o'er.
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 if, I sink or swim.

Oh love is handsome, and love is fine.
The sweetest flower, when first it'a new.
But, love grows old, and it waxes cold.
And fades away, like summer's dew.

Break

Repeat Vs. 1

The water is wide, I can't cross o'er.
And neither have I wings to fly.
Build me a boat, that can carry two.
And both shall row, my love and I
Yes, Both shall row, my love and I
