The water Is Wide
Bob Dylan
The water is wide and I can't cross over Neither have I wings to fly Build me a boat that can carry two And both shall row my love and I. There is a ship and it sails on the sea Loaded deep as deep can be But not as deep as the love I'm in I know not if I sink or swim I leaned my back up against an oak Thinkin' it was a trusty tree But first it bent and then it broke Just like my own false love to me Oh, love is gentle, love is kind Gay as a jewel when first it's new But love grows old and waxes cold And fades away like some morning dew The water is wide and I can't cross over Neither have I wings to fly Build me a boat that can carry two And both shall row my love and I
