Irish traditional song lyrics — collected by Beer Belly Band.
When I first saw the love-light in your eyes
I thought the world held naught but joy for me
And even though we’ve drifted far apart
I never dream, but what I dream of thee
Chorus:
I love you as I’ve never loved before
Since I first Saw you on the village green
Come to me in my dreams of love astoir
I love you as I lovedyou , when you were sweet
When you were sweet sixteen
Last night I dreamt I held your hand in mine
And once again you were my happy bride
I kissed you as I did in Auld Lang syne
As to the church we wandered side by side
Chorus
