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