Steve Goodman – The Water Is Wide Lyrics
Artist: Steve Goodman
Song: The Water Is Wide
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
There is a ship
And she sails the sea
A boat as deep as deep can be
But not as deep as this hole I’m in
And I know not if, I sink or swim
And I lean my back against some oak
Thinking it was a trusty tree
But first it bent
And then it broke
As my own love proved false to me
Love is gentle
And love is kind
And love is young
And love is new
Love grows cold as it grows old
Til it fades away like the mornin’ dew
And the water is wide
And I can’t cross over
Neither have I wings to fly
Build me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row
My love and I
And both shall row
My love and I
