Lyrics
1. The water is wide and I can’t cross over,
And neither have I wings to fly,
Build me a boat that can carry two,
And both shall row my love and I.
And neither have I wings to fly,
Build me a boat that can carry two,
And both shall row my love and I.
2. I leaned my back up against an oak,
I thought it was a trusty tree.
But first it bent and then it broke,
As did my false to me.
I thought it was a trusty tree.
But first it bent and then it broke,
As did my false to me.
3. Oh love is sweet and love is kind,
Fair as the dew first when it is new,
But love growth old and waxes cold,
And fades away like morning dew.
Fair as the dew first when it is new,
But love growth old and waxes cold,
And fades away like morning dew.

But love growth old and waxes cold,
And fades away like morning dew.
Fair as the dew first when it is new,
But love growth old and waxes cold,
And fades away like morning dew.
