I just watched "Brothers and Sisters". It is a show I have not missed since it began. This episode had Scott, Kevin Walker's partner singing a song called "The Parting Glass. He sang it beautifully. Here are the lyrics:
Of all the money e'er I had,
I spent it in good company.
And all the harm I've ever done,
Alas! it was to none but me.
And all I've done for want of wit
To mem'ry now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all
Oh, all the comrades e'er I had,
They're sorry for my going away,
And all the sweethearts e'er I had,
They'd wish me one more day to stay,
But since it falls unto my lot,
That I should rise and you should not,
I gently rise and softly call,
That I should go and you should not,
Good night and joy be with you all.
If I had money enough to spend,
And leisure time to sit awhile,
There is a fair maid in this town,
That sorely has my heart beguiled.
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips,
I own she has my heart in thrall,
Then fill to me the parting glass,
Good night and joy be with you all.
Anyway, I have a sense that life is changing. Change is good...right?
Scott is played by an actor, Luke McFarlane. He sang the above song beautifully.
