Carrickfergus Lyrics - Charlotte Church

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.
