Down By The Old Mill Stream

Down by the old (not the new, but the old)
Mill stream (not the river, but the stream)
Where I first (not the last, but the first)
Met you (not me, but you)
With your eyes (not ears, but eyes)
So blue (not green, but blue)
It was there (not here, but there)
I knew (not old, but new)
That you loved (not hated, but loved)
Me true (not false but true)
You were 16 (not 15, but 16)
My village queen (not king, but queen)
Down by the old (not the new, but the old)
Mill stream (not the river, but the stream)
