Saw you standing by the riverside in Orangefield
How I love you then in Orangefield
Like I love you now in Orangefield

And the sun shone on your hair
When I saw you there in Orangefield
Saw you standing by the riverside in Orangefield
How I loved you then in Orangefield
Like I love you now in Orangefield
And the sun shone so bright
And it lit up all our days
You were the apple of my eye
Baby it’s true

On a golden autumn day
All my dreams came true in Orangefield
On a throne of Ulster day
You came my way in Orangefield
How I loved you then in Orangefield
Like I love you now in Orangefield
And the sun shone so bright
And it lit up all our lives
And the apple of my eye
Baby was you

I wasted my time to write here my previous comment, for the future memory
