last night I had the strangest dream
you covered me down with a veil
and said, “Leave everything behind,
come with me to Scarborough Fair,

where flowers are in the meadow
and beauty is no mask for harm
larks and plovers will sing of love
on the hills of my little town

no sound of silence you will hear
or the refrains of blood and war
I’ll hold your hand and build a bridge
over troubled waters
, Amor!”

then, I woke up and found you gone
but gladly suffered the believing
in bits of resurrected life
with nostalgic notes of meaning

Musicians: Simon and Garfunkel
