Moorlough Shore

I have waited long for you to come back home

To hear you call my name again

In my heart's deep soul you've not changed at all

And the years have passed you by

Your sweet lips that lingered on my skin

I can feel their heat again

And your eyes that thrilled with passion's fire

They watch my every whim

Some say my love, sweet love was lost

While crossing the raging main

Or perhaps he has gone with some other girl

I might never see his face again

But if my irish love is lost he's the one I do adore

And for seven long years i'll wait for him

On the banks of the moorlough shore

He said farewell to castles grand

Farewell to the foggy hills

Where the linen waves like bleaching silk

And the falling stream runs still

Near there we spent our joyful days but alas they are all gone

For cruelty has banished him

Far away from the moorlough shore
