LYRIC

The water is wide, I can not get oโ€™er
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that will carry two
And both shall rowโ€ฆ my love and I.

Their love is plentiveโ€ฆ oโ€™er there it grows
It grows and blossoms like a rose
It has a sweet and pleasant smell
No flower on earth can it excel.

The ship there is and she sails the sea
Sheโ€™s loaded deep as deep can be
But not so deep as the love Iโ€™m in
I know not if I sink or swim.

Oh, love is handsome and love is fine
And loves a jewel when it is new
But rain it above it grows so cold
And fades away like morning dew
