• True Love and Water

Let's go up the hill and fetch a pail of water,
We'll hold it to the lips of all the sons and daughters
Your parents called you Jack, my parents called me Jill
They've given us the pail, they've shown to us the hill

The path is steep and winding,
the sun is hot and unabiding,
but there, there is the well!
There is the well and our bucket sinking,
It comes up brimming,
and we keep on drinking

Little Jack is acting wild,
He's made me a crown of flowers
(I've never seen him like this)
He's splashing me with water
We've been dancing here for hours
He takes me in his arms, and in this tender thrill,
I marvel at my chances, I'm so happy to be Jill

True love and water
For both of our lips

True love and water
For both of our lips

He has a lovely voice, I adore to hear him sing
He's forgotten he's a peasant boy,
he's acting like a king
He's promising me castles and pleasure manifold
He thinks the town will shower him with silver and with gold

When we bring
True love and water
To every son and daughter

True love and water
For all of their lips

He's running down the hill,
he seems to have forgotten our task
because the water keeps on spilling
and he's pulling me too fast
He says come on, lovely Jill, the sun is going down
We've got to show the world,
show them what we've found
It's written in the stars, it's written in the stars
This true love of ours
It's written in the stars

Little Jack's foot hit a root in the ground
He went tumbling, tumbling, tumbling down
as written,
Written in the stars
He had my arm, he holds it still
As I stare up at the dizzy sky and wonder why I'm Jill

True love and water
Were lost in the spill
So very close
To the bottom of the hill
