The Water Is Wide Lyrics – Carolyn Hester
Singer: Carolyn Hester
Title: The Water Is Wide
The water is wide, I cannot cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
Give 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
I leaned my back against some young oak
Thinking that he was a trusty tree
But first he bended, then he broke
And thus did my false love to me
Oh, love is handsome, love is fine
Gay as a jewel, when first it’s new
But love grows old and waxeth cold
And fades away like summer dew
The water is wide, I cannot cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
