Well I see what your saying kryptoncolomo, however it seems to me from the lyrics being always being "Tell her" That the man is indeed asking for impossible things because he knows they cannot be together. Thus saying when the impossible is possible we will be together. If I'm not mistaken Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme we're used in food so they did not taste bitter(among other uses). It sounds like, to me at least, saying that line is removing the "bitterness" from the past relationship? I could be totally wrong but that's the way I see it.
I heard the oldest versions of this were done by both a man and a woman. Everytime he offered her an impossible task, she returned the favor, all the way through the song.

It is about saying goodbye without breaking up. It is the original version of "Niether one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye"
