Barbara Dickson - Time & Tide

The Water Is Wide (Oh, Waly, Waly)

The water is wide,
I can't get over;
Neither have I, the wings to fly.

So, go one get me to a boat to carry both,
My love and I.
Must I be bound
And she go free?
Am I to love,
While she don't love me?
Why should I act the childish part,
And love a girl that breaks my heart?

There is a ship
Out on the sea;
And loaded deep,
As it can be.
But not as deep
As love am I,
Don't care if I
Should live or die.

The water is wide,
I can't get over.
Neither have I, the wings to fly.

So, go one get me to a boat to carry both,
My love and I.

To carry both,
My love and I.
