Music & Lyric by IanJeffrey King.
[Verse 1]
A boy I loved was strong and true
He asked me to marry, to marry him
Our two hearts, they beat as one
So that June, I married, I married him
[Verse 2]
We would go walking down by the stream
Talking about all of our plans
We were so happy, loving so true
Nothing could keep me away from him
[Verse 3]
He said he'd give his life for me
He said he'd give his life for me
Our two hearts, they were entwined
We lived a year as married, as married
[Verse 4]
We went out walking after the rain
The water, it swept me away
It held me under, then I felt his hand
Fast waters did take him away from me
[Verse 5]
A child we made is strong and true
He is soon to marry, to marry
He didn't ever touch his hand
Five months alone, I carried, I carried him
[Verse 6]
Stories are spoken and brave words are told
Of love that was swept far away
A young boy who kissed me still clings to my heart
Fast waters can't take him away from me
