Melody - Butterfield

I have wandered today to the hills, Maggie,
To watch the scene below
O, the creek and the creaking old mill, Maggie,
Where we used to long long ago.

Chorus:
They say we have outlived our time, Maggie,
As dated as songs we have sung
But to me you're as fair as you were, Maggie,
When you and I were young!

2. The green growth is gone from the hills, Maggie,
Where once the daisies sprung
O the creaking old mill is still, Maggie,
Since you and I were young.
Chorus:

3. O 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 all alone was the pen.
Chorus:
