The Water Is Wide - Live at Boston Music Hall, Boston, MA - November 21, 1975 - Evening
Lyrics
The water is wide an' 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 an' I ♪ There is a ship an' she sails on the sea Loaded deep as deep can be But not as deep as the love I'm in And know not how I sink or swim I leaned my back up against some oak Thinkin' it was a trusty tree But first it bent an' then it broke Just like my own false love to me ♪ Oh love is gentle, love is kind Gay as a jewel when first it's new But love grows old an' waxes cold An' fades away like some morning dew The water is wide an' 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 an' I
