Original song: Scarborough Fair
Original by: Simon and Garfunkel
Title: This Old Friend
Author: Inuyasha
****************
Author's Notes: This is written in Solo's Point of View. I think that this is what his character wished for Duo. This song really makes me feel sorry for poor Solo because he sings it to let people know the story of his life and tell them what all he had given up of himself so he could protect the orphen children on the streets.

Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
There is no way to save this old friend.
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Feel so lost, what more can I sell?
Remember me to one who lives there
Remember me until the world ends
She once was a true love of mine
Save yourself get out of this hell
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
Nothing is free, free is all I can give
(On the side of a hill in the deep forest green)
There is no blame it is just the way the world is
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Pride is lost, what more can I sell?
(Tracing a sparrow on snow-crested ground)
No one wants this life here on darkened streets.
Without no seams nor needlework
Fighting for such small scrap to live
(Blankets and bedclothes the child of the mountain)
I need to tell my pain to hide from your eyes.
Then she'll be a true love of mine
If I fail, get out of this hell
(Sleeps unaware of the clarion call)
Sleep unaware of my dying each night.
Tell her to find me an acre of land
Someone has to take it for the young ones
(On the side of a hill, a sprinkling of leaves)
I fight to keep your eyes so brightly shining.
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
I am lost, what more can I sell?
(Washed is the ground with so many tears)
When I die you will need replace me
Between the salt water and the sea strand
Bitter the tears that fall from my old eyes
(A soldier cleans and polishes a gun)
A alley and a buyer with money
Then she'll be a true love of mine
If I fail, get out of this hell
Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather
Someone has to take it for the young one
(War bellows, blazing in scarlet battalions)
Dark corners, body and body wandering
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Beauty lost, what more can I sell?
(Generals order their soldiers to kill)
Protecting all at the cost of yourself
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather
And I forget for all my pain I'm still a kid
(And to fight for a cause they have long ago forgotten)
And then long for a soft warm touch a embrace forgotten
Then she'll be a true love of mine
I have failed, get out of this hell
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Don't bother to save this old friend
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme
Run away, I know I'm not well
Remember me to one who lives there
Remember me until the world ends
She once was a true love of mine
Save yourself get out of this hell

What does everyone think of Solo now? This is just my viewpoint on what his character would be like. I've never even seen any proof that Solo exists in the Gundam Wing series actually. Does anyone have a GW novel or manga or something that actually shows Solo? Or is he just a fan created character? Anyway, he's so ingrained in the GW world that everyone knows who he is... hopefully. If you don't know who Solo is, Find Out! ^_^ Such a great guy.. *sniffles and wipes away tears*
Reviews are highly appreciated!
