Lisa - Carrickfergus lyrics

I wish I was in Carrickfergus Only for nights in ballygrand I would swim over the deepest ocean The deepest ocean for my love to find But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over Nor do I, have wings to fly If I could find me a handsome boatman To ferry me over to my love and die My childhood days bring back sad reflections Of happy times spent long ago My childhood friends and my own relations Have all pa**ed on now, like melting snow But I?ll spend my days in endless roaming Soft is the gra** and my bed is free But to be back now in Carrickfergus On that long road down to the sea But I?ll spend my days in endless roaming Soft is the gra** and my bed is free But to be back now in Carrickfergus On that long road down to the sea On that long road down to the sea
