|
The water is wide I can't cross over |
|
And neither have I got wings to fly |
|
Give me a boat that can carry two |
|
And both shall row my love and I |
|
Oh love is gentle and love is kind |
|
The sweetest flower when first it's new |
|
But the only love never waxing cold |
|
Is the love He offers to me and you |
|
Give me a boat that can carry two |
|
And both shall row my love and I |
|
There's a ship and she sails the sea |
|
She's loaded deep as deep can be |
|
And even deeper than the love I'm in |
|
If I step on board then our love begins |
|
Got to step on board let our love begin |
|
(Water is wide and I've got to cross over) |
