a beautiful track i have been wanting to put up for a while , finally found some clips to go with it off the net hope you enjoy it as much as i did . 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 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 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 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.
The very beautiful Charlotte Church.Cool video,classic song.

Ugh it's the Welsh Warbler a.k.a. the stuck up *bleep* who ruined 2 of my favourite classical Irish Folk tracks, this and The Water Is Wide.
NO offense Tri, but in MY opion she slaughterd this one.

no offence taken my friend thats your opinion and I know its been done by various artists , Paddy Reilly version is another i like as well but I will disagree about the slaughtering bit i think the backing and her voice on this goes brilliantly -trichoone .

thankyou for your nice comment and I agree about Charlotte's voice it was a big loss to the classical world when she became one of many pop singers she is a Mum now so i wish her luck in the future .
