The Water Is Wide

Bob Johnson, Gay Woods, Liam Genockey, Maddy Prior, Peter Knight, Tim Harries

Traditional

The water is wide, I cannot get oer
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
