Alderidge Creek
Written by Rose Betts
LYRICS
CHORUS
So we met by the pines
On Aldridge Creek
We were joyful, my lover and me
But the birds never sang and the air didn't speak
And the world lost my lover and me
VERSE 1
For a day we were swallows
Our arms were an armor
Branches of willows and miles in the stream
Swam with the minnows
And lay at the altar
Beside Aldridge Creek
The world lost my lover and me
CHORUS
VERSE 2
For a day we were daisies
Our heads spun together
Clouds over prairies
Our dream reached the sea
Time went all hazy
Turned into forever
Beside Aldridge Creek
The world lost my lover and me
CHORUS
VERSE 3
For a day we were shadows
We danced under flowers
Our kisses were arrows like meteor streams
Moonlight on windows
We lived beyond hours
Beside Aldridge Creek
The world lost my lover and me
CHORUS x 2
