Carrickfergus

Traditional Irish

Lyrics

 * I wish I was in Carrickfergus
 * Where my heart throbs from Vocaland
 * I would swim over the deepest ocean
 * For my love that is true and grand


 * But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
 * And neither have I got the wings to fly
 * I wish I had myself a handsome boatman,
 * To ferry me over, don't ask me why


 * With all the green clovers so fresh and vibrant
 * There is no place that I'd rather be
 * Not much than my true love with a heart of flesh
 * Taking me to the shore of the Emerald Sea


 * Yet not everything looks prim and perfect
 * Like fruits that grow anywhere from the soil of the Earth
 * But regardless of appearance, some are still delicious
 * My love would come share them with me standing the mirth


 * And so many spirits can keep on drifting
 * Far from the heavens to bless us all
 * No matter what types you are when you were born
 * Some come out big and some come out small


 * Compared to the past, there lies a deep future
 * A time where everyone will gather to set things right
 * Oh, Carrickfergus, I promise you will be preserved
 * We'll overcome darkness with the force of light
 * Oh, Carrickfergus, I promise you will be preserved
 * We'll overcome darkness with the force of light~
