The water is wide, ........

 The water is wide, I cannot get over , neither have the wings to flyGive me a boat that can carry two , and both shall row, my love and IA ship there is and she she sails the sea, she's loaded deep as deep can be But not so deep as the love I'm in, I know not if I sink or swimI leaned my back against an oak , thinking it was a trusty tree But first it bent, and then it broke, so did my love prove false to me I reached my finger into some soft bush , thinking the fairest flower to find I pricked my finger to the bone, and left the fairest flower behind Oh love be handsome and love be kind, Gay as a jewel, when first it is new But love grows old and waxes cold , and fades away like morning dew Must I got bound while you go free, Must I love a man who doesen't love me Must I be born with so little art, as to love a man who'll break my heart When cockle shells turn to silver bells ,then will my love come back to me , When roses bloom in winters gloom, then will my love return to me ......I am a pesky scot,  75 % scottish and 25 % irish, I love all celtic music, this one nad The Isle of Innishfree bring me to tears, this one in paticular, thats how get through each day , music,........
