I saw the harbor lights They only told me we were parting Those same old harbor lights That once brought you to me I watched the harbor lights How could I help it? Tears were starting Goodbye to golden nights Beside the silvery sea I long 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 harbor lights Will bring you back to me
