E5 F#5
Well once upon a time
B5 E5
When I held you in my arms
F#5
On a blanket in the grass
B5 E5
Where we'd watch the falling stars
F#5
Under that old maple tree
B5 E5
We'd share secrets in the dark
F#5
Now I sit here all alone
B5
Watching children play
E5
In Mackenzie Park
A5 F#5 G#5 A5
And we lived, laughed, and loved as if
E5
There were no tomorrow
A5 F#5 G#5 A5
Up until the day you went away
B5
Leaving only sorrow
Now the stars don't shine
The way they used to do
Like they did when you were mine
Perhaps they're lonely too
You can barely read the names
That I carved inside a heart
Now I sit here all alone
Watching children play
In Mackenzie Park
(Chorus)
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
Watching children play
In Mackenzie Park
