Many steps has taken her strength Many times has she been scared And many times has she been closer Yet so far away from here Many towns has she been a passing A wilderness and river side and sea And many thoughts has driven her to you On her way down there to be free To be free To be free In some lonely tower She hiding out when darkness creeps And many times has she been following When he's watching her while she sleeps While she sleeps While she sleeps And scarlet tell me What time has done to you She won't talk about it now She won't talk about it now with him tonight Many times has she been awaiting For his dark brown eyes to appear And every fiddle tune will lease her pain So as we loose sight she can hear She can hear She can hear And scarlet tell me What time has done to you She won't talk about it now She won't talk about it now with him tonight And scarlet tell me What time has done to you She won't talk about it now She won't talk about it now with him tonight
