Down by the old mill stream by Tell Taylor — Lyrics
My darling I am dreaming of the days gone by,
When you and I were sweethearts beneath the summer sky;
Your hair has turned to silver, the gold has faded too;
But still I will remember where I first met you.

About Down by the old mill stream
A nostalgic look back to a cherished first meeting, Down by the old mill stream captures the essence of a romantic summer's day. The lyrics recall a youthful romance, a 'village queen' with eyes of blue, beneath a sky of blue. This arrangement for TBB choir brings a rich barbershop flavour to the familiar melody. The simple, heartfelt words speak of enduring affection, where memories of that special place, the old mill stream, remain vivid even as time passes and 'hair has turned to silver'. It's a classic sentiment, perfect for occasions recalling fond memories or celebrating enduring love.
