all right, this is kinda convoluted. i'm looking for the lyrics to a song about an orchard. i don't know the name and i don't know who it's by. great, i know. all i can remember is that it was written fairly recently (probably within the last ten years) by a man from cape breton and that it chronicles the life of a young man as he grows up and sneaks into the orchard over and over again (first alone, then with friends, then with a girl,etc.). if anyone has any idea what i'm talking about, PLEASE HELP! it was a really great song and i'm kinda desperate. thanks.

Oddly enough, I've heard a song based on this idea, centred on the small Irish town of "Dungarvan". Works through from childhood to old age. Wonder if its the same?
