Scarborough Fair

 

                                  - Sarah Brightman

Are you going to Scarborough Fair
Parsley, Sage,Rosemary and Thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine
Tell her to make a cambric shirt
Parsley,Sage,Rosemary and Thyme
Without no seams nor needle work
Then she'll be a true love of mine
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
Tracing of sparrow on snow crested brown
Blankets and bed clothes the child of the mountain
Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
Tell her to find me an acre of land
Parsley,Sage,Rosemary and Thyme
Between the saltwater and the sea strand
Then she'll be a true love of mine
(On the side of a hill a sprinkling of leaves 
Washes the grave with silvery tears
A soldier cleans and polishes a gun
Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
Parsley,Sage,Rosemary and Thyme
And gather it all in a bunch of heather
Then she'll be a true love of mine
(War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions
Generals order their soldiers to kill
And to fight for a cause 
they've long a go forgot then)
