i walked the shores of dublin looking out to sea
white horses on the waves rolling wild and free
covering the sand heading to the shore
coming home again coming home once more

there i met a girl she stopped and said hello
we sat down together watched the water flow
stars were shining bright in the sky above
i looked in to her. eyes and began to fall in love.

then i held her hand we walked a little more
with the moon above lighting up the shore
then we held each other i squeezed and held her tight
underneath the moon and the stars so bright.

we looked at the clouds as they were floating bye
all the shapes they made in the dublin sky
tide began to turn to roll away once more
as it rolled away to some other shore

we settled down together raised a family
in love for evermore we would always be
with the girl i met that set my heart a whirl
and forever more she will be my dublin girl
