in the clear glassy water running through the creek

I go there sometimes when I’m feeling a little blue
It brightens up my day to sit and think things through

Dancy hues of colors I give them an admiring look

feet dangly off the bridge, just the swishing sound
quietly listening together, no sweeter a place found

Our bridge sits rusting, and her day is now in numbers

So, Run down the hillside and climb on up while we still can remember
