Song: | 3 4 4 -4 4 5 -4 4 -3" 3 The water is wide, I 4 -3 4 4 Neither do I have wings to -4 5 -5 6 ---> Give me a boat that can carry two -4 4 -3" and both shall row, my love and I.
O love is gentle, and love is kind, Love is sweet, when first it's new But such love grows old as wax grows cold It fades away, like morning dew.
There is a ship that sails the sea She's loaded deep, as deep as can be But now as deep as the love I'm in I don't know how I'll sink or swim.
But the water is wide, and I can't cross ov'r Neither do I have wings to fly Give me a boat that can carry two and both shall row, my love and I. |
