Give me a boat that can carry two

and both shall row, my love and I.

O love is gentle, and love is kind,

Love is sweet, when first it’s new

But such love grows old as wax grows cold

It fades away, like morning dew.

There is a ship that sails the sea

She’s loaded deep, as deep as can be

But now as deep as the love I’m in

I don’t know how I’ll sink or swim.

But the water is wide, and I can’t cross ov’r

Neither do I have wings to fly

Give me a boat that can carry two

and both shall row, my love and I.
