Lyrics
So we met by the pines
On Alderidge 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
For a day we were swallows
Our arms were an arbour
Branches of willows
Our mouths in the stream
Swam with the minnows
And lay at the altar
Beside Alderidge Creek
The world lost my lover and me
So we met by the pines
On Alderidge Creek
We were wishful
My lover and me
But the birds didn't fly
And the air didn't breathe
And the world lost my lover and me
For a day we were daisies
Our heads spun together
Clouds over prairies
Our dreams reached the sea
Time went all hazy
Turned into forever
Beside Alderidge Creek
The world lost my lover and me
So we met by the pines
On Alderidge Creek
We were watchful
My lover and me
But the birds didn't rise
And the earth stayed asleep
And the world lost my lover and me
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 Alderidge Creek
The world lost my lover and me
So we met by the pines
On Alderidge Creek
We were hopeful
My lover and me
And the birds flew right by
And the earth made them sing
But the world lost my lover and me
