The water is wide, I cannot cross over,
Neither have I wings to fly,
Give me a boat that can carry two,
And both shall row - my love and I.

There is a ship and she sails the sea
She's burdened deep, as deep can be
But not so deep as the love I'm in
I know not how, I sink or swim

I leaned my back up against some young oak,
Thinking he was a trusty tree,
But first he bended and then he broke,
And thus did my false love to me.

Oh, love is handsome, love is fine,
Bright as a jewel, when first it is new,
But love grows old, and waxes cold,
And fades away, like summer dew.

The seagulls wheel, they turn and dive,
The mountain stands beside the sea.
This world we know turns round and round,
And all for them - and you and me.

The water is wide, I cannot cross over,
Neither have I wings to fly,
Give me a boat that can carry two,
And both shall row - my love and I.
Both shall row - my love and I.
