O Waly, Waly lyrics
Song information
Artist: Sarah Brightman Album: The Trees They Grow So High
Lyrics
The water is wide, 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 it is new But when it is old, it groweth cold And fades away like morning dew
