I saw the harbor lights,
They only told me we were parting.
The same old harbor lights,
That once brought you to me.
I watched the harbor lights,
How could i help if tears were starting?
Goodbye to tender nights,
Beside the silv'ry sea.
I long to hold you near,
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 is whisp'ring.
Some other harbor lights,
Will steal your love from me.

Now i know lonely nights,
For all the while my heart is whisp'ring.
