1968, Van Morrison guitar & vocals

See you smile

angel child,

that's all I ever wanted to do.

See your laugh

in a photograph,

that's all I ever wanted to do.

See your swishin' walk,

and talk your baby talk,

that's all I ever wanted to do.

Lorna,

Lorna,

that's all I ever wanted to do.

Carry you,

carry you down by the banks of the river,

all along down,

all along down the grasses' [throne ?].

Carry you, carry you,

by the banks of the river,

that's all,

that's all I wanted to do.

I'll carry all your books to school,

and maybe be your fool,

that's all I wanted to do.

Ah, just to hold your hand

all along the golden sand,

that's all I wanted to do.

Lorna,

Lorna,

that's all I ever wanted to do.
