When You and I Were Young, Maggie - 1866 - Tom Roush
This song's lyrics were written as a poem by the Canadian school teacher George Washington Johnson from Hamilton, Ontario. Margaret "Maggie" Clark was his pupil. They fell in love and during a period of illness, George walked to the edge of the Niagara escarpment, overlooking what is now downtown Hamilton, and composed the poem. The general tone is perhaps one of melancholy and consolation over lost youth rather than mere sentimentality or a fear of aging. It was published in 1864 in a collection of his poems entitled Maple Leaves. They were married in 1864 but Maggie's health deteriorated and she died on May 12, 1865. James Austin Butterfield set the poem to music and it became popular all over the world. George Washington Johnson died in 1917. This song is from my CD 'Siver Threads Among The Gold' which is available on iTunes at : https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/silver-threads-among-the-gold/id940257648 Hard copy CDs can be purchased at: tomroush.us
