Meg Davis The Claddagh Walk
By the riverside
By the turning tide
Rachel walked with her sailor
Whispers soft and sad
Of the times they had
There on the Galway shore
Will you wait for me
Still be true to me
While I sail on the ocean?
Every wave will be
Dreams of you and me
Here by the Claddagh Walk
One heart I give
To love with you
Two hands to hold you gently
Please wear for me
This sailor's gift of love
Little golden ring
Such a pretty thing
Holding hands together
Rachel smiled at him
And took his ring
As they kissed by The Claddagh Walk
As he sailed away
Happy on the bay
Rachel walked by the harbor
Whispered prayers for him
To return again
There on the Galway shore
And in the morning light
Something warm and bright
Twinkled round on her finger
Rachel smiled again
And kissed his ring
As she turned by The Claddagh Walk
One heart I give
To love with you
Two hands to hold you gently
And wear for me
This sailor's gift of love
Little golden ring
Such a pretty thing
Holding hands together
Rachel smiled again
And kissed his ring
As she turned by The Claddagh Walk
As she turned by The Claddagh Walk
