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