CLIFF RICHARD - The Water Is Wide lyrics

The water is wide I can't cross over<br>And neither have I got wings to fly<br>Give me a boat that can carry two<br>And both shall row my love and i<br><br>Oh love is gentle and love is kind<br>The sweetest flower when first it's new<br>But the only love never waxing cold<br>Is the love he offers to me and you<br><br>Give me a boat that can carry two<br>And both shall row my love and i<br><br>There's a ship and she sails the sea<br>She's loaded deep as deep can be<br>And even deeper than the love I'm in<br>If I step on board then our love begins<br>Got to step on board let our love begin<br>(water is wide and I've got to cross over)
