I wish I was in Carrickfergus where she is waiting, my rainbow's end I would swim over the deepest ocean just to see her sweet smile again
but the sea is wide and I cannot get over nor have I the wings to fly I wish I knew a friendly boatman to ferry me back to my sweetheart's side
I close my eyes and I remember the fields of green and flowers gold where we would walk in sunlit meadows how my heart's longing to be back home
but the sea is wide and I cannot get over nor have I the wings to fly so I’ll just dream of Carrickfergus and the day I said goodbye now and forever my love and I..................
