Lyrics Mackenzie Park - Aaron Watson

Well, once upon a time
When I held you in my arms
On a blanket in the grass
Where we'd watch the falling stars

Under that old maple tree
We'd share secrets in the dark
Now I sit here all alone
Watch the children play
In Mackenzie Park

And we lived, laughed, and loved as if
There were no tomorrow
Up until the day you went away
Leaving only sorrow

Now the stars don't shine
Ah, the way they used to do
Like they did when you were mine
Or perhaps they're lonely, too

You can barely read the names
That I carved inside a heart
Now I sit here all alone
Watch the children play
In Mackenzie Park

And we lived, laughed, and loved as if
There were no tomorrow
Up until the day you went away
Leaving only sorrow

Sometimes I think of you
And I just have to smile
Though forever never was
At least we had a little while

How time flies when you're young
Just like the flicker of a spark
Now I sit here all alone
Watch the children play
In Mackenzie Park

Now I sit here all alone
Watch the children play
In Mackenzie Park
