1:15:21 > 1:15:25# The water is wide

1:15:25 > 1:15:28# I cannot get o'er

1:15:28 > 1:15:35# And neither have I wings to fly

1:15:35 > 1:15:40# Give me a boat

1:15:40 > 1:15:44# That will carry two

1:15:44 > 1:15:47# Then both shall row

1:15:47 > 1:15:51# My love and I

1:15:55 > 1:16:02# Oh, down in the meadows the other day

1:16:02 > 1:16:09# A-gathering flowers both fine and gay

1:16:09 > 1:16:17# A-gathering flowers both red and blue

1:16:17 > 1:16:20# I little thought

1:16:20 > 1:16:26# What love can do

1:16:33 > 1:16:41# I leaned my back up against some oak

1:16:41 > 1:16:48# Thinking that it was a trusty tree

1:16:48 > 1:16:57# But first it bended and then it broke

1:16:57 > 1:17:05# And so did my false love to me

1:17:08 > 1:17:15# A ship there is and she sails the sea

1:17:15 > 1:17:22# She's loaded deep, as deep can be

1:17:22 > 1:17:26# But not so deep

1:17:26 > 1:17:31# As the love I'm in

1:17:31 > 1:17:40# I know not if I sink or swim

1:17:48 > 1:17:52# O, love is handsome

1:17:52 > 1:17:56# And love is fine

1:17:56 > 1:18:00# And love's a jewel

1:18:00 > 1:18:05# While it is new

1:18:05 > 1:18:10# But when it is old

1:18:10 > 1:18:15# It groweth cold

1:18:15 > 1:18:19# Then fades away

1:18:19 > 1:18:27# Like morning dew. #
