[Verse 1]
The water is wide, I cannot cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that will carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
[Verse 2]
A ship there is, and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
And I know not if, I sink or swim
[Verse 3]
O down in the meadows the other day
A-gathering flowers both rich and gay
A-gathering flowers both red and blue
I little thought what love could do
[Verse 4]
I put my hand into one soft bush
Thinking the sweetest flower to find
I pricked my finger right to the bone
And I left the sweetеst flower behind
[Verse 5]
For love is handsomе, and love is kind
Gay as a jewel when first it's new
But when it's old it grows quite cold
And it fades away like the morning dew
The water is wide, I cannot cross over
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that will carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
[Verse 2]
A ship there is, and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
And I know not if, I sink or swim
[Verse 3]
O down in the meadows the other day
A-gathering flowers both rich and gay
A-gathering flowers both red and blue
I little thought what love could do
[Verse 4]
I put my hand into one soft bush
Thinking the sweetest flower to find
I pricked my finger right to the bone
And I left the sweetеst flower behind
[Verse 5]
For love is handsomе, and love is kind
Gay as a jewel when first it's new
But when it's old it grows quite cold
And it fades away like the morning dew
