I saw the harbour lights, they only told
me we were parting.
Those same old harbour lights that once
brought you to me.
I watched the harbour lights, how could I
help if tears were starting?
Good-bye to golden nights,
beside the silvery sea.
I longed to hold you dear, and kiss you just
once more.
But you were on the ship, and I was on the shore.
Now, I know lonely nights for all the while my
heart keeps praying.
That someday harbour lights will
bring you back to me.
