| Chorus:
|
| Limerick you’re a lady
|
| Your Shannon waters tears of joy that flow
|
| The beauty that surrounds you
|
| I’ll take it with me love where e’er I go.
|
| While waking in the arms of distant waters
|
| A new day finds me far away from home
|
| And Limerick you’re my lady
|
| The one true love that I have ever known.
|
| As children you and I spent endless days of fun
|
| In winter’s snow or summer’s golden sun
|
| We fished in silver streams, the fabric of my dreams
|
| Was fashioned by your loveliness and so I have to say.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Limerick you’re a lady
|
| Your Shannon waters tears of joy that flow
|
| The beauty that surrounds you
|
| I’ll take it with me love where e’er I go.
|
| While waking in the arms of distant waters
|
| A new day finds me far away from home
|
| And Limerick you’re my lady
|
| The one true love that I have ever known.
|
| The difference time has made, for travellers on their way
|
| Seeking out the beauty of my land
|
| At shrines the children play, and bells ring out to say
|
| Thank God we’re living just to feel the freedom of each day. |
| Chorus:
|
| Limerick you’re a lady
|
| Your Shannon waters tears of joy that flow
|
| The beauty that surrounds you
|
| I’ll take it with me love where e’er I go.
|
| While waking in the arms of distant waters
|
| A new day finds me far away from home
|
| And Limerick you’re my lady
|
| The one true love that I have ever known.
|
| While waking in the arms of distant waters
|
| A new day finds me far away from home
|
| And Limerick you’re my lady
|
| The one true love that I have ever known.
|
| The one true love that I have ever known… |
