      She won’t because it was be bad to bring it back. Lilith Fair had the goal of highlighting women artist but ultimately it failed because it turned “women” into a genre. This was BAD for women artists. Signing a female artist became like signing a country singer … and not all labels do country.

    As someone else said, this song has been around for almost 500 years. In that time, the one line that's in almost every version is "love grows old and waxes cold." Jewel sings that line with such pathos, I get chills every time I hear it. I agree with another poster - - this must be what heaven sounds like (at least, I hope so).

    Give me a boat, carry two
    And both shall row
    My love and I
    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
    There is a ship that sails the sea
    She's loaded deep as deep can be
    But not as deep as the love I made
    I know not how I'll sink or swim
    The water is wide, I can't cross o'er
    And neither I have wings to fly
    Give me a boat that can carry two
    And both shall row
    My love and I
    And both shall row
    My love and I

But my husband Lyn Dame ..knew how important this was to me and Roxx.. and so I left my newborn 7 week old daughter with her dad. Made me crazy but was the best thing ever... Roxx and I had a wonderful needed time.. with some of our idols .. I worried the whole time about my daughter but everything was fine and me and my best friend had the most awesome time. I know she remembers it all too... my boobs leaking and all we weren't letting anything get between us... I love you so much Roxx.. you have no idea... just wanted you to know you are the most awesome parts of my life. You have a peice of my soul girl.
