When You and I Were Young, Maggie

When You and I Were Young, Maggie - Eddy Arnold

Written by：James Austin Butterfield/George Washington Johnson

I wandered today to the hills Maggie

To watch the scene below

The creek and the creaking old mill Maggie

As we used to long ago

The green growth is gone from the hills Maggie

Where first the daisys spring

The creaking old mill is still Maggie

Since you and I were young

A City so silent and lone Maggie

Where the young and the gay and the best

In polished white mansions of stone Maggie

And each stone a place of rest

Is built where the birds used to play Maggie

And join in the songs that were sung

For we sang as gay as they Maggie

When you and I were young

And now we are aged and gray Maggie

And the trials of life nearly done

Let us sing of the days that are gone Maggie

When you and I were young
