Belongings (Water is Wide)

The water is wide, I cannot get over Neither have I wings to fly Give me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I A ship there is and she sails the sea She's loaded deep as deep can be But not so deep as the love I'm in I know not if I sink or swim I leaned my back against an oak Thinking it was a trusty tree But first it bent and then it broke So did my love prove false to me Oh love be cute and love be kind Gay as a jewel when first it is new But love grows old and waxes cold And fades away like morning dew When cockle shells turn silver bells Then will my love come back to me When roses bloom in winter's gloom Then will my love return to me The water is wide, I cannot get over Neither have I wings to fly Give me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I The water is wide, I cannot get over Neither have I wings to fly Give me a boat that can carry two And both shall row, my love and I
