the water is wide

• eva cassidy'nin söylediği süper şarkılardan biri...
  
  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.
