[i]Fare you well my dear
I must be gone
And leave you for a while.
If I roam away
I'll come back again
Though I roam ten thousand miles my dear
Though I roam ten thousand miles.
(dude part comes in)
So fair thou art
My bonnie lad/lass (depending on gender)
So deep in love am I
But I never will prove false
To the bonnie lad/lass I love
Til the stars fall from the sky my dear
Til the stars fall from the sky...
(guys solo)
The sea will never run dry my dear
Nor the rocks ever melt with the sun...
(everyone comes back in with beautiful harmony)
But I never will prove false
To the bonnie lad/lass I love...
(decrescendo + retardando)
Til the stars fall from the sky...
Til the stars fall from the sky...
(beautiful piano and flute solo)
(sopranos come in)
O yonder sits that little turle dove
(guys [after girls]: O yonder sits that little turtle dove)
He doth sit on yonder high tree
A making a moan for the loss of his love
As I will do for thee my dear
As I will do for thee...
(melody on/off between sopranos and tenars)
Fare you well my dear
(Tenars: Fare you well my dear)
Fare you we-ell my-y dear
(TenarsL Fare you we-el my-y dear..)
Fare welllllllllllll
(Fare wellllllllllllll)
*rest (fermata)*
Fare wellllllllll...
