Lyrics of The Creek

I watch the creek as it slowly flows
It speaks to me as if it knows
All the questions that are in my mind
The answers to which it helps me find

It's out in the country on an old farm
It flows between a pasture and an old barn
Big it is not, It's just a small stream
Just sitting and listening always helps me dream

One time in the water as I did stare
The reflection of a young maiden with long golden hair
Her eyes shining like diamonds, her complexion so fare
When I turned to greet her she was not there

Many times I've returned to the creek since that day
To search for answers to guide my way
When I realized one day I will not, I will be gone
But the creek is ageless and will forever live on
