The Water Is Wide (Karaoke Version)

The Water Is Wide

Eva Cassidy

The water is wide. I cannot get o\'er

And neither have I wings to fly

Give me a boat that can carry two

And both shall row my love and I

Oh love is handsome and love is kind

And love\'s a jewel when it\'s first new

But love grows old and waxes cold

And fades away like morning dew

There is a ship it\'s sailing the sea

It\'s loaded deep as deep can be

But not so deep as my love for him

I know not if I sink or swim

The water is wide. I cannot get o\'er

And neither have I wings to fly

Give me a boat that can carry two

And both shall row my love and I

And both shall row my love and I
