LYRICS
Verse
In the shade of a willow tree, along the water’s edge
We whiled away an afternoon, sitting on a cool stone ledge
Starting out as best friends, we grew to be much more
Sharing life and love together like we’d never done before
Pre-Chorus
We grew up on Mulberry Creek, swimming where the water was cool and deep
Fishing from the bridge on old Chapel Hill Road
As we grew older we’d sit and talk, or just hold hands and quietly walk
Along those shifting sands, we’d come to know
Chorus
Mulberry Creek, your waters kept on flowing
Mulberry Creek, was there any way of knowing
That things would turn out differently from what we thought they ought to be?
That she could live so happily without me
Mulberry Creek
Verse
We scraped our way through high school, it was us against the world
We laughed and cried together as our teenage years unfurled
Talking about the future, and how our love would last
But now looking in the mirror, I can’t believe our time has passed
Pre-Chorus
Life blew by in a blinding blur
She went to college, I went to work
Building our future with our hearts and with our hands
But she met him in her second year, and told me then while fighting back tears
She and he had made their wedding plans
Chorus
Mulberry Creek, your waters kept on flowing
Mulberry Creek, was there any way of knowing
That things would turn out differently from what we thought they ought to be?
That she could live so happily without me
Mulberry Creek, your waters kept on flowing
Mulberry Creek, was there any way of knowing
That things would turn out differently from what we thought they ought to be?
That she could live so happily without me
Mulberry Creek
