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.
