Barbra Streisand - The Water is Wide / Deep River Lyrics

The water is wide
I cannot cross over
And neither have
I wings to fly

Build me a boat
That will carry two
And both shall row
My love and I

There is a ship
And 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 how
I sink or swim

Deep river
My home is over Jordan
Deep river, Lord
I want to cross over into campground

Deep river
My home is over Jordan
Deep river, Lord
I want to cross over into campground

Oh, don't you want to go
To that gospel feast
That promised land
Where all is peace
Lord, deep river, Lord
I want to cross over into campground

The water is wide
I cannot cross over
And neither have
I wings to fly

Build me a boat
that will carry two
And both shall row
And both shall row
And both shall row
My love and I
