The Water Is Wide
The water is wide I cannot get o'er
- The water is wide I cannot get o'er
- Neither have I wings to fly
- Give me a boat that can carry two
- And both shall row my love and I
- Where love is planted O there it grows
- It grows and blossoms like a rose
- It has a sweet and pleasant smell
- No flower on Earth can it excel
- 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
- Oh love is gentle and love is kind
- The sweetest flower when first it is new
- But love grows old and waxes cold
- And fades away like the morning dew
I used to only dream of singing this song - it was too high for me back then 😅😆

I like it so much
Thanks for the song you sing. You raise me up
It's supposed to be an unwinding song yet now merely a regretful memory
Well done keep up the good song 💝 🎻
