I saw the harbour lights
They only told me we were parting
The same old ha-arbour lights
That first brought you to me
I watched the harbour lights
How could I help if tears were starting?
Goodbye to tender nights
Beside the silvery sea
I long to hold you near
And kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship
And I was on the sho-o-ore
Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whispering
Some other ha-arbour lights
Will steal your love from me
I long to hold you near
And kiss you just once more
But you, you were on the ship
And I was on the sho-o-ore
Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whispering
Some other ha-arbour lights
Will steal your love from me
