There’s a creek with a swing And rocks for climbing That turns a man into a boy The creek is born From a waterfall That fills a young girl with joy
He watches her wade In the pool in the shade A beauty no one could conceive And this place is so real So perfect it feels That they each never want to leave
Beyond the thrall Of the waterfall The creek from the ether transcends It twists and it turns Like his touch on hers And it seems to go on without end
He offers his hand To help her ascend She accepts without making a choice And they follow the stream In a faraway dream Far enough from real life’s aching voice
Back home, flesh and bone The lonely unknown And a love that is doomed not to be But they still hear the call Of the waterfall In the ether and in their dreams
