[00:40.05] |
The water is wide I cannot get o'er |
[00:48.26] |
Neither have I wings to fly |
[00:55.74] |
Give me a boat that can carry two |
[01:04.04] |
And both shall row my love and I |
[01:16.27] |
Where love is planted O there it grows |
[01:24.08] |
It grows and blossoms like a rose |
[01:31.88] |
It has a sweet and pleasant smell |
[01:39.61] |
No flower on Earth can it excel |
[01:47.66] |
A ship there is and she sails the sea |
[01:55.09] |
She's loaded deep as deep can be |
[02:02.46] |
But not so deep as the love I'm in |
[02:09.88] |
I know not if I sink or swim |
[02:43.26] |
Oh love is gentle and love is kind |
[02:51.19] |
The sweetest flower when first it is new |
[02:59.05] |
But love grows old and waxes cold |
[03:06.97] |
And fades away like the morning dew |
