The Water Is Wide - Live

Lyrics

The water is wide
 I cannot swim ore
 And neither have I
 The wings to fly
 Give me a boat
 That can carry two
 And we both shall row
 My true love and I
 A ship there is
 And she sails the seas
 She's laden deep
 As deep can be
 But not so deep
 As the love I'm in
 And I know not if
 I sink or swim
 I leaned my back
 Against a young oak
 Thinkin he was
 A trusty tree
 But first he bended
 And then he broke
 Thus did my love
 Prove false to me
 Oh love is handsome
 And love is kind
 Bright as a jewl
 When first it's new
 But love grows old
 And waxes cold
 And fades away
 Like the morning dew
 And fades away
 Like the morning dew
