Carrickfergus Lyrics
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 cannot 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 Eire
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 cannot swim over
Nor have I the wings to fly
Ah, 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

Beautiful, peaceful, and sublime. Those are the characteristics of Charlotte Church and her music. (Especially this song)
I LOVE THIS SONG! The music is so beautiful. It surprised me though to find "Carrichfergus" on Loreena McKennitt's CD, though the lyrics were VERY different. I love this version though. Wait, I already said that didn't I.....
this song is amazing! i love the lyrics beyond anything.
