A HINT OF ROSEMARY © Vic Arnold/John Vaughan 2014
v1
She lived independently in a cottage by the bay.
When her parents died she was all alonebut decided she would stay.
Hardly ever came to town. The garden filled her needs.
Now and then she'd sell perfume that smelled of Rosemary
v2
Pruned her roses every spring, and the petals from the blooms
she gathered with the herbs and seeds and mixed with morning dew.
Scent drifted through the valley on the autumn breeze,
bringing love and peaceful dreams with that hint of Rosemary.
ch
Lavender and chamomile, cedarwood and sap of pine,
orange blossom, fennel seeds and just a hint of Rosemary.
Just a hint of Rosemary.
v3
Rumours say she'd loved a man but no one ever saw
Some say he was a captain on a British man o' war.
Some say he couldn't settle and hungered for the sea
When finally he left he took the heart of Rosemary
ch
Lavender and chamomile, cedarwood and sap of pine,
orange blossom, fennel seeds and just a hint of Rosemary.
Just a hint of Rosemary.
inst
br
The only one to get up close was closer to the sea
The only one to ever get a hint of Rosemary.
ch
Lavender and chamomile, cedarwood and sap of pine,
orange blossom, fennel seeds and just a hint of Rosemary.
Just a hint of Rosemary.
Drifting through the valley. Just a hint of Rosemary.
