Charlotte ChurchCarrickfergus

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 can not 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 arak,
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 can not swim over.
nor have I the wings to fly.
ahh 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.
I wish I was back home again.
