Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
The river is wide, I cannot see
Nor do I have light wings to fly
There'll be a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I

My love is like the lofty tree
It shudders fears and then sways free
If it should fade when the summer's through
She'll bloom again when the spring shines through

When love is young, then love is fine
Just like a gem when first it's new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like the morning dew

The river is wide, I cannot see
Nor do I have light wings to fly
There'll be a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
The river is wide, I cannot see   Nor do I have light wings to fly   There'll be a boat that can carry two   And both shall row, my love and I      My love is like the lofty tree   It shudders fears and then sways free   If it should fade when the summer's through   She'll bloom again when the spring shines through      When love is young, then love is fine   Just like a gem when first it's new   But love grows old and waxes cold   And fades away like the morning dew      The river is wide, I cannot see   Nor do I have light wings to fly   There'll be a boat that can carry two   And both shall row, my love and I
