I wandered today ,to the hills,MAGGIE,to watch .the scene.... down below. The creek and the creaking old mill ....MAGGIE,where we, used to love,...long ago.
The green grove is gone from the hill, MAGGIE,where first the daisy's ..........sprung.
The creaking old mill ,is still ,..,....MAGGIE,....since you and I were young.
OH ! THEY say that I'm feeble, with age ,MAGGIE,,..my steps, are much slower, than then.
My face, is a well written page..MAGGIE ,,,,.and time alone... was the Pen.
They say ,.we have Outlived our time, MAGGIE.,as dated as the song that we've sung.-......BUT TO ME, YOU'RE AS FAIR AS YOU WERE....MAGGIE...-when you .and i ,..i were young....... repeat the CHORUS.........AND ROUND AND ROUND WE GO AGAIN....!

what a beautiful song. Really! I never knew the words.... nostalgic and powerful. And how nice of u to post it here. Made me think of a lot things...how LOVE has no age. And how emotions run deep no matter how old u may be.
Thank you
