Folk Song Arrangements - O waly waly - Geoffrey Parsons (杰弗里·帕森斯)/Sarah Brightman (莎拉·布莱曼)

The water is wide and I cannot get o'er

And neither have I wings to fly

Give me a boat that will carry two

And both shall row my love and I

O down in the meadows the other day

A gath'ring flowers both fine and gay

A gath'ring flowers both red and blue

I little thought what love can do

I leaned my back up against some oak

Thinking that he was a trusty tree

But first he bended and then he broke

And so did my false love to me

A ship there is 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 if I sink or swim

O love is handsome and love is fine

And love's a jewel while love it is new

But when it is old it groweth cold

And fades away like morning dew
