Carrickfergus


I wish I was in carrickfergus
Where the castle looks out to sea
I would swim over the deepest ocean
For my love to be with me
But the sea is wide and I can not swim over
Nor have I the wings to fly
I wish I had a handsome boatman,
To ferry me over, my love and i

I wish I was in the land of arak,
Where the mountains reach the sea
Where flowers blossom as I do remember
Where my true love came to me
But the sea is wide and I can not swim over
Nor have I the wings to fly
Ahh to be back now in carrickfergus
To be together my love and i
To be together my love and i

I wish I was in carrickfergus,
To be together my love and i

I wish I was back home again
