ORIGINAL LYRICS

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 seas

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
