David Sanborn - The Water Is Wide

The water is wide I can't cross over

And neither have the wings to fly

Give me a boat that can carry two

And both shall row, my love and I

Oh, love is gentle and love is kind

The sweetest flower when first it's new

But love grows old and waxes cold

and fades away like morning dew

There is a ship and she sails to sea

She's loaded deep as deep can be

But not as deep as the love I'm in

I know not how I sink or swim
The water is wide I can't cross over

And neither have the wings to fly

Give me a boat that can carry two

And both shall row, my love and I

Oh, love is gentle and love is kind

The sweetest flower when first it's new

But love grows old and waxes cold

and fades away like morning dew

There is a ship and she sails to sea

She's loaded deep as deep can be

But not as deep as the love I'm in

I know not how I sink or swim
