"And We Did Fall" lyrics

I took Maria down to ol' Lindenlure
We sat in the river beneath the falls
And that old river was cold, clean, and pure
We did fall, we did fall, fall in love

We got married out on Highway Double A
In that church without a name
And we just laughed when that preacher said to pray
We did fall, we did fall, fall in love

And when the geese flew south
We'd just stand and watch 'em pass
And when the bitter wind blew in
We knew it wouldn't last
After all, we did fall, fall in love

We had one daughter
We named her Charlotte Grace
Born one morning in the spring
I remember when we first saw her face
And we did fall (we did fall), we did fall (we did fall), fall in love

My sweet Maria finally found her peace
She held my hand then let it go
I closed her eyes for that last release
We did fall (we did fall), we did fall (we did fall), fall in love
And when the geese flew south
We'd just stand and watch 'em pass
And when the bitter wind blew in
We knew it wouldn't last
After all (after all), we did fall, and we did fall (we did fall), we did fall
After all (after all), we did fall, fall in love
