The Water Is Wide (IEBFA0400008)

The Water Is Wide ()-Luka Bloom Written by :Cabrieres Jean Paul The water is wide I can't swim over 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 it sails on the sea Out on the deep as deep can be But not as deep as the love I'm in And on that boat I'll sink or swim I leaned my back up against that boat Thinking it was a trusty tree But first it bent and then it broke Just like my own false love to me Oh love is gentle and love is kind Gay as a jewel when first it's new When love grows old still it carries on But it sometimes fades like the morning dew The water is wide I can't swim over And neither have I wings to fly Give me a boat that can carry two And both shall row my love and I And both shall row my love and I
