The Water Is Wide
Trad.
The water is wide, I cannot get
over
And neither have I wings to fly.
Give me a boat that’ll carry two
And both shall row, my love and I.
Where love is planted, oh there
it grows
It grows and blossoms like a rose.
It has a sweet and pleasant smell,
No flower on earth can it excel.
The 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.
Oh, love is gentle, love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it’s new.
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew.
Scarborough Fair
Trad.
Are you going to Scarborough
Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
He once was a true love of mine.
Tell him to make me a cambric
shirt.
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Without no seem nor needlework,
Then he’ll be a true love of mine.
Tell him to find me an acre of
land.
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Between the salt water and the sea strand,
Then he’ll be a true love of mine.
Are you going to Scarborough
Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
He once was a true love of mine.
You Are
Water
Words and Music by
Ava Parnass, Alex Forbes & Eve Nelson
When I’m lost in a tunnel
of shadows and fear
With no light, only night.
And I listen for a kind word but nobody’s
here,
Oh so blue, ah but you.
You were the one voice,
That gives me my own voice.
Oh, don’t you know?
You are water on a hot summer
day,
For a thirsty daughter who’s finding her
way.
You are water, I found my oasis;
I’m drinking from the fountain of dreams.
You are water.
You hear the melody of my song
You’ll stop totalling, heal my mind.
You show me the struggle; can make you so strong
Plant the seed, let it sleep.
You are the one voice
That gives me my own voice
Oh, don’t you know?
You are water, on a hot summer
day
For a thirsty daughter who’s finding her
way.
You are water, I found my oasis and
Now I’ve got my arms wide open.
Now I’ve got my wishes in motion.
I wanna thank you,
Yeah I wanna thank you.
Every step that you take shows
me the way.
You are water on a hot summer
day,
For a thirsty daughter finding her way.
You are water.
I found my oasis and
Now I’ve got my wishes in motion.
You are water.
You are water.
You are water.
