I'm looking for the words to a song called My Little Claddagh Ring. I think that's the title. It starts.....

I am looking back across the years
What memories they do bring
Of all the hopes and of all the fears
Like swallows on the wing
If I were but a poet, what a story I could sing
Of all the things encircled in a little Claddagh ring

It's nothing like the Old Claddagh Ring. I can make out most of the words but there are a few lines that have got me puzzled. Anyone know it?
