Clare Island Lyrics - Saw Doctors

Will you meet me on Clare Island 

Summer stars are in the sky 

We'll get the ferry out from Roonagh 

And wave all our cares goodbye 

And we'll go dancing at the ceili 

We'll go kissing on the strand 

Take our clothes off in the moonlight 

Skinny-dipping hand in hand 

And we'll start drinking in the twilight 

Keep it up until the dawn 

In both the bars 

Because there's no guards 

To take our names and send us home. 

Will you meet me on Clare Island 

Gettin' weary of the city 

Seems so many things have changed 

Let's head off for Nora Dalys home 

Where she's walked 

It never rained 

So will you meet me on Clare Island 

And if there's wild and tall white horses 

And the swell rolls in the bay 

I won't care if the boat can't sail 

Sure we'll get home 

Some other day 

So will you meet me on Clare Island. 

(the locals say "in " to the Island and out to the mainland but the song feels right from a tourists point of view)
