《The Water Is Wide》歌词

[00:00:00] The Water Is Wide - Carolyn Hester (卡罗琳·赫斯特)

[00:00:03] The water is wide I cannot cross over

[00:00:11] And neither have I wings to fly

[00:00:19] Give me a boat that can carry two

[00:00:26] And both shall row my love and I

[00:00:40] There's a ship and she sails the sea

[00:00:50] She's loaded deep as deep can be

[00:01:01] But not so deep

[00:01:06] As the love I'm in

[00:01:12] I know not how

[00:01:17] I sink or swim

[00:01:23] I leaned my back

[00:01:28] Against some young oak

[00:01:33] Thinkin' that he was

[00:01:37] A trusty tree

[00:01:43] But first he bended

[00:01:49] And then he broke

[00:01:53] And thus did my

[00:01:58] False love to me

[00:02:05] Oh love is handsome

[00:02:09] And love is kind

[00:02:15] Gay as a jewl

[00:02:19] When first it's new

[00:02:24] But love grows old

[00:02:29] And waxes cold

[00:02:34] And fades away

[00:02:39] Like summer dew

[00:02:48] The water is wide I cannot cross over

[00:02:59] And neither have I wings to fly

[00:03:08] Give me a boat that can carry two

[00:03:18] And both shall row my love and I
